It would be nice, though. And I like doing things expediently. However, I understand that AI is a time consuming process.
On the other hand, I do not want to be left in limbo. I wonder if I should email after conventions happen. Most of the ones I am interested in do have conventions coming up in the summer.

If the groups you are primarily focusing on have convention, contact them AFTER convention. Right now the HQ staff is very busy with preparations (those programs, handouts and signs come from somewhere). Waiting a few weeks afterwards would show that you've done some homework!
Keep in mind too, that not all groups handle AI inquiries at the HQ level. It is NOT ALWAYS the appropriate place to send your letter. Check with someone from that group privately to confirm to whom your letter should be sent.
