Fellow Federationists and friendss,
Several members of our chapter are willing to share their rooms with
others looking forroom mates for the National Convention.If you are going
to New Orleans and want to share a hotel room with someone else please
E-mail me back privately, or call (210) 826-9579.  One person has all
ready taken us up on this invitation but we still have some other members
willing to share their rooms, and room expenses with others needing a room
mate for the convention.  
I was talking to Mrs. Maurer this afternoon and she says that the National
office is still receiving reservation requests and requests for
information about the National convention.  Who knows.  perhaps the
Hampton Innwioll be filled by now.  Perhaps some of you might encourage
members of your chapters and state affiliates to help ensure htat all who
come to the convention have a place to stay.  Mary and I have done this
for a number of years now and it helps both us and our room guests.  just
an idea to pass on.
Peter donahue
