[nfbwatlk] First Meeting of "At Large" Chapter of NFB of Washington

Hi,

On the list, there isn't anything subtle about inviting all to join us. We welcome anyone that wants to be with us. The idea of an at large chapter is great. An at large chapter should only exist for an individual unless or until he/she gets the bug and creates a ground swell of support for the NFB in his or her area, finds more blind people, and brings a physical or "at small" physical chapter together.

Hope this gets folks interested.

/s/

Bennett

I will surely glad to attend if I win the nfbw scholarship this year,
otherwise, I'll have to see how I can participate.

Thanks for the invite--I really hope that I can attend one of these. Are
they exclusively on the phone, or are they in specific locations?

Greetings, everyone.

 

The first meeting of the "At-large" chapter of the NFB of Washington will be
held this coming Sunday evening, September 16, at 7:00 p.m. Pacific Daylight
Time. To connect to the meeting, please dial (218) 339-3600. When prompted,
please enter the Conference Code 849246# (849246 followed by the pound
sign).

 

This first meeting we'll discuss what the NFB is and discuss a constitution
for the chapter. I'll have one drafted by that time. We'll probably hold a
second meeting at the NFB of Washington convention to adopt the chapter
constitution.

 

This chapter will be for those persons who cannot get to regular meetings of
any of the several NFB of Washinggton chapters. People such as Philip
Blackmer and Humberto Avila are excellent candidates to participate but all
are welcome.

 

See you then.

 

Mike Freeman
