>Please post this up on the NFB website. It is an 
>open position as a District Administrator with 
>the Florida Division of Blind Services in the 
>Tampa office. It closes soon so please post 
>ASAP. It may also be found at 
><http://jobs.myflorida.com/>http://jobs.myflorida.com 
>and then a search of positions with the DOE – 
>Department of Education and then the position is 
>listed under “general.” Strangely enough it is

>unless we dove in and dug through the listings. 
>Might be a good job for someone wanting to move 
>to Florida.   Thanks and have a nice day.
