[nfbwatlk] National Federation of the Blind Spring 2013 Seminar

[Prows, Bennett (HHS/OCR)]

I believe the Ramada Inn at 5th and Blanchard is still open. And, at 7th and Blanchard, there is a "days in" too. Blanchard is 3 blocks south of Wall.

I always stay at the Silver Cloud on Broadway but it's expensive.
