From the Desk of the Executive Director

Spring Has sprung!

Hopefully, by the time you are reading this we are reaching daily highs of 62 degrees or warmer. For those who don’t know me, I have had the privilege of being the Executive Director of the Chester County Bar Association for just under two and a half years. We have a lot of exciting things going on at the Bar! For starters we have a number of great events coming up over the next few months. Please get your reservations in now for our Bar Foundation Key Gala, which will be held on Thursday, May 12th at Penn Oaks. This night is entirely about supporting our Foundation as it seeks to raise money to support local charities like the Domestic Violence Center of Chester County, Legal Aid, and the Crime Victims’ Center of Chester County just to name a few. Last year we were able to give away $175,000 to vital charities in our community in part due to the very successful Gala we held, and the generosity you exhibited. We will also have a very lively Auction full of trips and other great prizes for you to bid on. Bar Sail is headed back to Baltimore Inner Harbor this year on Thursday, June 16th, and registration for this fun event should be up for you to peruse. If you aren’t big on boats, keep in mind you can always just drive down and join us for dinner and drinks and stay over for what is sure to be a memorable night. Additionally, we will be hosting a plethora of CLEs and Happy Hours, so keep your eyes posted for these announcements as they come out! If you are looking to grow your practice, keep an eye out for our Lawyer Referral Service registration, which will be opening up in mid-May. We have 95 attorneys currently in the program, and last year alone those folks reported receiving over $550,000 in attorneys’ fees from referrals they received through the program. If you are interested in learning more about this program, please call our office and ask to speak to Lauren Shea who is our LRS administrator. On a personal note, it is my hope that if we don’t yet know each other we get the chance to meet at some point this year, and that if you do know me, we have the opportunity to spend plenty of time catching up over the next 9 months.
