The ILCRA Executive Board would like to welcome you to its new and informative Web site. We welcome your comments and suggestions. Thanks for your interest in visiting this site, and we hope to hear from you soon. If you wish to send us written correspondence, the mailing address is 41 Southwest Crescent Drive, Mt. Vernon, IL 62864.
You have seen the
commercials for new and improved products. ILCRA is proud to show
off their new and improved Web site! No, we cannot make your teeth whiter
or your clothes smell fresher. But we can provide you, our members, with
a Web site which focuses on growth through innovation. Your Board consists
of a group of individuals who excel at creative thinking and working
productively together. A very special thank you to Board members
Judy Mosier and Sharon Stuckly for the innumerable hours they spent putting
together all the information on the Web site which they felt would be beneficial
to you. They did an incredible job. So please look at all the
features the new Web site offers. This will be a great way to keep all
ILCRA members up-to-date and current on the issues affecting court reporters
across the State of Illinois.
Your Board has been working on quite a few projects.
Proposed bylaws
changes have been presented to the Board for their consideration. Please
watch the Web site and look for emails as the process
moves forward.
As you know, we co-host with the State of Illinois for the
three Court Reporting Services (CRS) seminars.
We are gearing up
for National Convention in Chicago this August. How exciting it will be
when an Illinoisan becomes NCRA's President!
We felt it was
financially sound to have ILCRA’s annual meeting at the National convention in
August rather than a full ILCRA convention a month or two following
National.
Even though it is only spring, we are
already looking at next year’s seminars and conventions!
I want to also share with you an opportunity for a
win-win situation. ILCRA is holding a cash raffle. The
tickets are $100 each (you may purchase them individually or pool your funds with your family, friends, co-workers). The
prizes?
Third place - $3,000 cash.
Second place -
$5,000 cash.
First place - $10,000 cash!
The
drawing will be held at the Saturday evening event during National
Convention. You may purchase your winning ticket via our Web site, at
any of the CRS seminars, or at National Convention.
Please share this
great offer with everyone you know! There are only so many tickets sold, so buy
early and buy often!
