IRI Summer Bash 2026

On September 8, 2026 IRI held its Summer Bash; an annual event during with all IRI staff are celebrated but particularly those who provide direct support. The event started with a solo steel drum player, incredible music by DJ Orbin, dance and singing competition, raffles, and good food. A feeling of camaraderie permeated the venue and we were happy to have present Mr. Monteil, IRI board president; Dr. Simmonds, first vice-president; Mr. Robert Parris, second vice-president; and Ms. Deoki Pestano, board member. The event offers the opportunity for all staff to interact with executive and senior staff as well as board members. The Summer Bash kicks off a series of events to celebrate the direct support staff. Special thanks to Ana Koessler, Chief Administrative Officer and her team for, once again, hosting a fun event.
