Please join FRID for our 2021 Annual Business Meeting and help shape the direction of FRID for the coming year. The FRID Board of Directors invites all our members to the meeting, which will be held virtually via Zoom as part of FRIDCon 2021.  

During the meeting, Board members and Committee Chairs will give updates on the work they have been doing, newly elected officers will be sworn in for their term of service (which begins January 1, 2022), the floor will be open for members to make motions, and we’ll announce the recipient of the 2021 Distinguished Service Award! This meeting is open for both members and non-members to attend. Register for free at the Annual Business Meeting event page.

Take a moment out of your of interpretation rejuvenation to see where the organization has done in the past year and help shape where we're headed!

The FRID Annual Business Meeting is presented in ASL. For any necessary accommodations, please e-mail RegionRepEast@fridcentral.org.

For any cancellations, please e-mail treasurer@fridcentral.org.


FAQ

What is the dress code? 

The dress code is Black-tie! Tuxedos and floor-length gowns! Don’t be afraid to wear COLOR or PATTERN- this is a night OFF! 

Can I bring my partner who doesn’t know ASL? 

YES. Please bring a plus-one to celebrate the evening with you! We plan for the night to be accessible to all. There will be lots of interpreters around if needed ;). 

What are we celebrating? 

YOU! Our organization has hit a milestone- 50 years; that’s half a century! We could not have made it without our members, who are also our leadership, our committee chairs, the people who read the emails we send out, the people who’ve kept the wheels turning all these years! 

Can a non-FRID member buy tickets?

Only FRID members can purchase tickets as this is a members-only event; but we do not expect your Plus-One to be a FRID member. 

Will there be dancing? 

Yes! We will have a D.J. Dancing and eating are basically the entire agenda. 

Will there be CEUs? 

NO! This is not a workshop. While networking is bound to happen with a room full of niche professionals, this night is about FUN. See last question ;). 

What should I bring? 

I.D. will be needed for check-in and cash/card for purchasing any alcoholic drinks from the cash bars.



For any necessary accommodation requests, please email pdc@fridcentral.org at least 14 days before the start time of the event.
