During the 2006 Blue and Gold banquet, I tied to find an interpreter for one of our families. This isn't the easiest thing to do. Here are a few notes to help in the future.

Deaf Access (919) 792-2121
Ask for Carol, she has a mailing list for all the registered/certified signers in the area.
Ask her if she will broadcast a request to assist the pack for an activity. Some of the signers may volunteer their time.

For our banquet, I ended up calling around person to person. I found Kelly Hodgins (hodgins.org) and she not only helped by doing the signing for the banquet, but she also gave me the information above.

in the past, we have also worked with Colonial Baptist Church's signing ministry.
