The school year is off and running and I'm finally taking time to welcome everyone back! Even with the switch to the traditional calendar the summer still seemed to fly!
Some of our DMPS interpreters, as well as myself, attended a phenomenal week of workshops in Ames during the week of June.
That same week, Dylan Heuer, a former DMPS student and an RIT graduate, revived a summer baseball camp for D/HH children. Many interpreters from across the state were able to volunteer their time thanks to Deb Cates, the Ames workshop coordinator, who made it possible to attend the workshop and volunteer at the camp. We also had Des Moines community interpreters volunteer as well. It was a busy week for sure, but it was so rewarding to see kids from across the state come together for a week of fun!
I feel so blessed to work in a field that is so rewarding on so many different levels! So welcome back, and thank you for reading my post. I will try to use my corner for some interesting interpreting information as well as fun facts.
