In November 2015, members of the Colorado Court Reporters Association exhibited at the state’s school counselors’ annual convention held in Colorado Springs. CCRA members provided attendees with realtime demonstrations and valuable information about the court reporting and captioning professions including the vast opportunities they offer.
According to Sheri Tackett, RMR, CRR, CRC, vice president of CCRA, participation in the event led to the group being invited to exhibit at a local school district college and career fair the following week.
Other CCRA representatives who participated in the events included: Erika Baca, a freelance reporter from Henderson; Rianna Elmshaeuser, RPR, an official reporter from Castle Pines; Cathy Holiday, RMR, CRR, CRC, a broadcast captioner from Colorado Springs; Shelly Hunter, RPR, CRR, a freelance reporter from Denver; Maria Orton, RPR, a freelance reporter from Aurora; Lisa Wagner, RPR, CCRA president and an official reporter from Castle Rock; and Rochelle Whitney, RPR, an official reporter from Colorado Springs.
