President Maurer sits on the floor for a chat with the children,
blind
and sighted, prior to the convening of the 2003 NOPBC Parents Seminar.
You can be sure he will be asked to do a repeat performance at the
2004
NFB Convention which will take place at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in
Atlanta, Georgia, from June 29 - July 5. The NOPBC events will begin
on
Tuesday, June 29. It will be a week full of informative (and fun) program
items for parents, teachers, and kids. Join us!
