Region I Award Winner for Best Website!
Region I Award Winner for Best Website!
It was a thrilling moment on Saturday, August 14th at the RID Region I Conference in Albany, New York when the Awards Committee announced that RI RID had won the Best Website Award. Members in attendance applauded wildly as President Mary Ellen Breen proudly accepted the award on behalf of the membership. It was a big accomplishment for the organization and one we'll never forget!
Many thanks to RI RID's webmasters, Hayley Jamroz and Christine West. A special thanks to Dorothy Hodge and Tracy Silva for providing many of the professional quality photographs that grace the pages of the website. And thanks to the RI RID Board and all RI RID members for their continued support. We did it!

Hands Waving for the Audio Visual Committee
Congrats and thanks are also extended to the Region I Conference Audio Visual Committee- Rosa Norberg, Committee Chair and the following Committee Members: Mary Ellen Breen, Curtiss James, Yvette Johnson, Michele Neiley, Jonathan O'Dell (MA) and to Student Support Staffer, Alicia Babcock (RI). Without your efforts (and the equipment loaned from our generous partner organizations), the success of the Conference would not have been possible. Also, thanks to Rosa Norberg for her work in creating the gorgeous RI RID Basket for the Silent Auction and for all of the members who contributed so kindly to it. Hands waving RI RID!

We're on the move....
In an effort to be more involved in our community, RI RID will be meeting at different locations throughout the year. During our July meeting at the Southside Community Land Trust, we discussed why changing our location would be beneficial...
In 2010, RI RID has met at the Warwick Public Library Central Branch,Southside Community Land Trust, and Bridgemark.

Carpooling made easy with the RI RID Phone Tree
Looking to save on some gas? Carpool with other local interpreters. The RI RID Phone Tree is a useful tool to contact other interpreters for subbing jobs or in this case, filling your car. The only interpreters to have access to the list are those who have already submitted their own contact information to share.
Please contact Member at Large, Hayley at Hayley.Jamroz@gmail.com for more information.
Do you have great ideas? Do you love working in RI?
