[Plan21] Fwd: Question

[Jim Barbour]

 Hey Rachel,

I wunder,  can we get away with that at state convention? I say get away with it because Natalie is likely not going to assign anywhere near as many captioners to our state convention, so I don’t know if she can avoid back to back scheduling. Also, is it OK for us to assume the captionera won’t have non-business obligations after a session?

Thoughts?

Jim

For the main sessions - the Banquet, Resolutions, Board Meeting, etc., that are long and not really conducive to a break, I would jump on and switch out the captioner to provide breaks midway through. Otherwise, we asked hosts to take a break every 2 hours or so for the longer sessions, like the division meetings.
