Indiana School Counselor Association

Peachy Nicodemus Evans and her husband, Gary Evans, attended this annual event and educated high school and middle school counselors in Indiana about the careers of court reporting and captioning.
Here is what Peachy had to say: “It was so much fun being an exhibitor and representing StenoStrides on behalf of Indiana court reporters at the Indiana School Counselor Association conference at the Marriott East, Indianapolis. 650 attendees, not including the exhibitors. What a big turnout! The refreshment table was right behind our table, so people were always stopping by, not only because they saw the steno machine and the chocolates (first day, we were the only table with chocolates) but also those big glow-in-the-dark highlighters!”
