It will soon be time for the 2002 convention of the National Federation of the Blind, to be held at the Galt House Hotel, 140 N. Fourth Street, Louisville, Kentucky 40202. The Galt House, site of our 1985 NFB convention, is a beautiful hotel, in a convenient, central location.
To receive our special NFB National Convention rates, phone the Galt House at:
