[Southern_Oregon_Chapter] virtual convention tips, and ideas

[Katie Taylor]

Hello fellow NFB members. Missouri just had there state convention
virtually. They said that over all it went well. They did door prizes, but
needed to confirm the winner over the phone. Only registered participants
could be eligible to win. No chapters were able to fund raise, nor were they
able to have an auction. They trained all hosts, and cohosts beforehand so
that all of the break out cessions ran smoothly. To prevent zoom bombing it
is recommended that you set up a waiting room for special events like the
board meeting, and scholarship comittie. If you are going to have special
events like a happy hour you need to know who is specifically coming so you
can lockout unwanted participants. Each affiliate had their own zoom account
for each sponsored event during the convention. Whit regard to Pac, and
resolutions details for those activities were sent out ahead of time to make
decision making easier. A voice vote was used for the resolutions, and the
same could be done for pac. As far as the banquet the speech was streamed,
and so were the scholarship winners. Thank you for your time and attention
to this letter. If you have questions Missouri will be putting out this
information on there chapter presidents list. Katie Taylor Vp. Southern
