There will be a Computerized ATA Exam sitting on Sunday, September 11 from 9 a.m. to 12 Noon.

I thought this would be a perfect time to meet other colleagues from the area in an informal setting. I live in PA but almost 3 hours away from Philadelphia, so I am initially proposing to meet for dinner at the Independence Beer Garden, at 6 pm on September 10.

This way we can have dinner, chat, and then those of us who are taking the exam the next day can call it a night early enough to get some rest.

I am open to suggestions for other venues and/or hours. Please join me and other interpreters and translators for a great evening!
