Annual Silent Retreat
Join us for an immersive ASL experience! Thatâ??s right! Itâ??s time once again for ICRIDâ??s Annual Spring Retreat. This yearâ??s theme is â??Weâ??re Going Places: Come With Us!â?? and it will be held at Goshen College.
The ASR is an awesome opportunity for ASL students, interpreting students, and working interpreters to learn side by side while forming community connections. The ASR is an immersive experience where all participants are encouraged to use only non-verbal means to communicate. Be that via ASL, gesturing, or old fashioned paper and pencil, all participants will learn (or take a refresher course) on how Deaf and Hard of Hearing individuals make their way in a hearing world.
To make sure that everyone follows this rule, there is a modest penalty of 25¢ per word spoken. Make sure you bring a roll of quarters if youâ??re inclined to be chatty!
High school students who are minors must fill out and mail in the form. We need a signature from your parent/guardian.
