[Nfbkabs] event at KSB

[katie]

Hey guys,
   
  I've attached flyer that will be given out at KSB so everyone will know whats on it before hand.
   
  Jayne suggested I list some of the questions I've gotten this year so i'm going to try to remember as much as I can.  If people do actually ask questions some of these might come agian because I haven't known all the answers to everything.
   
  Questions
  What is the difference between the NFB and ACB?
  Why are there two seperate groups?
  How much does it cost to join?
  Whats the point in being in either group?
  Why is the NFB agianst making money different for blind people?
  What does the NFB think about guide dogs?
  How does the NFB feel about having voice overs on TV shows?
  What does NFB thing about sighted guide?
  Why don't you all like the buzzers on cross walk signs?
   
   
  And i'm sure theres been a lot more big ones as NFB and KABS some how manages to come up everytime i'm at KSB.  
   
  I want to elaborate on the mentoring idea that was mentioned as i've had more time now to put thought into it. The idea came from the program that is in place at national convention for new members to have mentors. For starters I think this is a great way for people out in the state to be able to be involved with the events like this that happen in louisville  and also get to know newer members.  What I want to happen with this is for members of KABS that feel comfortable doing to contact on a regular basis the new members that are interested.  This way the have someone to walk them through any questions they may have.  Also by ding htis we make sure no one falls through the cracks and people that do want to get involved know how to.   This will require people to volinteer to help though, so if you are interested please let it be known.
   
  Thanks everyone,
  Katie
