NAAFA's 2011 Convention Registration Now Open

OAKLAND CA, February 06, 2011

NAAFA is returning to The Hill in 2011 and we are having a convention celebration that you won't want to miss! Make plans now to join us for our annual fund-raising convention being held August 4 through 8, 2011 at the Westin Washington Dulles Airport Hotel near Washington, D.C. You may register to join us through our website at http://www.naafa.org. With your help and participation we can make a difference! We Come In All Sizes!

We are changing our schedule a bit this year and filling our time with learning, networking, community building, swimming, dancing and more. Our Friday night dance will be sponsored NAAFA DC, our local chapter. We can't wait to see what fun they have in store for us! Saturday night's 2011 NAAFA Fashion Show and Auction Awards Dinner is promising to be the country's premier plus size fashion show with dinner and fashion, scholarship awards being presented plus our well-known Not-So-Silent Auction.

Sunday we will learn from knowledgeable experts the most effective ways of working to change our laws. Then on Monday August 8th, we will visit key representatives and organizations to present our case for changing this country's anti-discrimination laws. You won't want to miss this opportunity to be involved!

We have worked hard to keep the cost of this convention down and have made it easy for you to register for the convention as well as the hotel at http://www.naafa.org. We encourage you to register for the full package today and to fully participate in this exciting, life-changing event.
