[nfbwatlk] This weekend

[Prows, Bennett (HHS/OCR)]

Wow Chrys.  That's good news.  I won't be there, but it's really too bad
you have to come back before the Washington seminar.  I think the
education you receive from working at the grass roots level to affect
legislation, and particularly concerning issues that mean something to
us as blind persons is as important as any educational opportunity you
have. 

I took my oldest daughter with me a couple of years ago when she was in
the eighth grade, (I think), and she learned a lot about how government
works.  I know you're in college, and know how laws are passed, etc.
That's all the more reason we need you there.

Nevertheless, hope you have a great seminar this weekend.  Let us know
how it goes.

Hey Everyone,

Just curious if anyone else is going to NFB headquarters this weekend? I
will be going there with the College Leadership group for a leadership
weekend before Washington Seminar (but have to come back on Sunday b/c
of classes). Hope some others from the affiliate will be there!
