Summer 2008
As a new year begins for our
Bar Association, I want to thank outgoing President Bill Koerner and last
year’s Board of Directors for a wonderful year filled with some memorable
events.
One event that stands out in
my mind is the retirement party for
then Clerk of the Circuit Court David
Bell.
The large number
of attendants to that
event certainly represented how much Dave
meant to everyone in
our community, but it
also demonstrated the
potential for attendance
at future Bar Association events.
Our Executive
Committee’s goal this
year is to make membership a fun experience.
We are committed to scheduling creative social
events and notifying members about
these events, but WE NEED YOU,
the members, to attend these events in
order to meet our goal.
Many of our
events come at no cost to our members and are great opportunities for
members to socialize with each other.
We will continue to schedule a
“Free B Friday” each month so that
members can stop by the Bar Office
and grab a cup of coffee and a donut
and talk about weekend plans.
On
September 19, 2008, Chief Judge Newman is graciously hosting a cocktail reception for Bar Association members.
In addition, the Annual Bar Association Picnic is scheduled for September
20, 2008 at Cherry Hill Park in the City
of Falls Church.
The picnic is free to
members and their families and it is a
great chance to play a friendly game of
softball.
With respect to continuing legal
education, the Executive
Committee has designated a
CLE Program Committee
to schedule interesting topics of discussion for our
members.
Some of these
CLE Programs will be held
at local restaurants during
lunch time so that our
members can earn credits
while enjoying a good meal.
In addition to attending events, we need
member participation in some of the
projects that we are planning this year.
Law Day provides an excellent opportunity for our association to give back
to our community.
Our Executive
Committee is planning to work with
our local schools early this year to address Law Day and scheduling members to visit schools as speakers to discuss the Rule of Law as well as Diversity in the Legal Profession.
We are committed to scheduling fun events that will generate the
large number of member attendance
that is capable of this great Bar Association.
All we need is you to reach
this goal.
