Dear Court Reporters,

It is that time of year again, time for the Idaho Court Reporters Annual Seminar.   We are very excited about this year’s seminar, especially since it will be held in beautiful Post Falls, Idaho, at Red Lion Templin’s, right outside of

Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.   Attached you will find the Seminar outline and Registration form.  

ICRA has reserved a limited number of rooms at Templin’s government rates.   When making your hotel reservations, please specify that you are with ICRA to get the special rate.  Deluxe room, single occupancy is $71.00/night.  Deluxe room, double occupancy is $81.00/night.  Additional adult guest per room/night is $10.00.   Important!!  Hotel reservations need to be made by April 3^rd.  That is when the room block expires.  Call 1-800-283-6754 to make your reservations.  We have also been informed there is a softball tournament in the area the same weekend, so hotel rooms are expected to be scarce.

The approach to seminar planning this year was unique in the sense that we looked at it from the perspective of “What am I interested in?” realizing that we are more than court reporters.  We have strived to include some software training and stress management techniques along with some serious topics that affect most women, breast cancer. And, yes, men can be affected as well, as can the women in their lives.   We hope you feel the same way we do, learning comes in many forums.

Our hope is that we will have a great turn out and that everyone who attends can walk away having learned something useful and, in the process, invigorate themselves with a sense of community by coming together with other reporters.    

Nicole Omsberg, President; List Yant, Vice President; Kim Saunders, Secretary-Treasurer
