Dear Conventioneers:

I want to welcome everyone to the 53rd annual conference and convention of the American Council of the Blind here in exciting Las Vegas, Nevada.  I am looking forward to presiding over my first convention as president of ACB, and to talking with so many members and guests from across the country and, in fact, from around the world.

The theme of the 2014 convention is "ACB: The Real Deal."  This is a great theme for this year's convention because we are in the city that knows about dealing cards and ACB can proudly claim some “real deal”…

Below are the links to the available formats for downloading.

The text to all the ads is in the MS Word .doc format; the color ads are in the .pdf format.
