Have You Made Your Reservations for Kansas City
The time is drawing near for the 1986
national convention, and Kansas City
promises to be the best yet. The headquarters
hotel is the luxurious Hyatt
Regency Kansas City at the Crown Center,
one of the finest and most interesting
hotels in the nation; but if you want to
be in the headquarters hotel, reservations
absolutely must be sent in immediately.
We
have two other fine hotels to
handle the crowds, the Phillips House
and the Americana, and there will be
shuttle bus service among all of the
hotels twenty-four hours per day.
Requests for reservations should not
be sent to the hotels but to the
National Office of the Federation, and
checks for room deposits ($30.00 for
each room) should be made payable to
National Federation of the Blind. For
further details check the November,
1985, Braille Monitor; or contact
National Federation of the Blind, 1800
Johnson Street, Baltimore, Maryland
21230; telephone 301-659-9314.
These are the details of hotels and
reservations, but they do not really
tell the story. Kansas City in '86 will
be where the action is--fine restaurants,
interesting program items, major
league baseball, and all of the varied
exciting shops and stores of the Crown
Center. As to restaurants, the Golden
Ox is probably one of the finest steak
houses in the nation, and the Kona Kai
is equally excellent for Polynesian
fare. In the Hyatt is the Peppercorn
Duck Club, where the fare is not only
tasty but unique.
In Louisville in 1985 more than 2,000
delegates registered to attend the meetings.
There were representatives from
all over the country and from other
nations. 1986 should be even better.
If you have not made your reservations,
get them in today, and don't miss out on
Kansas City in '86. The dates are
Friday, June 27, through Saturday, July
5. See you in Kansas City!
