Greetings Convention Attendees,

I hope you were able to join us for last week's presentation with Darwin
Belt from WayAround. We appreciate Darwin sharing information about this
exciting technology and how it can help make our convention experience even
more accessible.

If you were unable to attend, or if you would like to learn even more, be
sure to join us on Friday afternoon during convention for the breakout
session, Tapping Into It: Making the Most of Smart Devices. During this
session, Peg Halverson will share more about WayAround and the many ways it
can be used at home, at work, and at school, along with other helpful
technology tips.

As a reminder, WayTags will once again be included on the back of convention
name badges this year. These tags will provide quick access to important
convention materials, including:

*	The 2026 NFB of Nebraska State Convention agenda
*	The exhibitor packet
*	Hotel menus
*	Additional hotel information

To get the best experience, we recommend downloading the free WayAround app
before convention.

Apple App Store
<https://apps.apple.com/us/app/wayaround-tag-and-scan/id1294361140> 

Google Play Store
<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wayaround.wayaround> 

You do not need to create an account to use the app, but creating one may
make it easier to save and retrieve information later.

Using your WayTag is simple. The tag will be located on the back of your
name badge. To scan it, just hold the top back portion of your phone to the
badge. There is no need to open the app first and no need to turn the badge
around. Your phone should automatically detect the tag and open the
WayAround app.

The information on the tag is organized by headings, making it easy to
navigate.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. We look forward to
seeing you in Kearney.

 

Sincerely,
