The affiliates are looking forward to several opportunities in early 2007
that are focused on helping the lawyers and affiliates get to know one another
better. The first opportunity will be a social mixer in Tampa on the evening of
25 January 2007 which will be following an ELULS executive committee meeting and
will be associated with The Florida Bar's Continuing Legal Education (CLE)
course entitled "Environmental & Land Use Considerations for Real Estate
Transactions." Look for our advertisement to come out on this soon and please
plan to attend! Following this will be two affiliate/lawyer-sponsored mixers
associated with the 13th Annual Public Interest Environmental Conference in
Gainesville on 1 March 2007 as well as with a CLE course entitled “2007 Hot
Topics, Cases and Projects” in Ft. Lauderdale on 23 March 2007. We may also add
one or more mixers by mid-2007.
These lawyer/affiliate events have grown in popularity and are a great way for
lawyers and affiliate members to interact in a relaxed atmosphere. Also, these
events are a good way for "prospective affiliates" to check out membership in
the ELULS. We try to spread these events around the State of Florida and I would
encourage you to invite "prospectives" to attend when our mixers are nearby. We
have a few "land use-related" affiliate members and would especially like to see
increased growth/participation in that portion of our membership. Please note
that there are low-cost sponsorship opportunities associated with these events
for affiliates and law firms which can provide good visibility. If you are
interested in sponsorship, please let me know!
The affiliates have started planning for their portion of ELULS's August 2007
Annual Update in Amelia Island. Traditionally, the affiliates help organize (and
provide speakers for) portions of the Annual Update having to do with technical
and ethical issues. I would appreciate any thoughts you would like to provide on
specific topics and formats which the affiliates should consider for the 2007
Annual Update.
Please also note that our affiliate members have expressed a willingness to be a
resource for lawyers on other fronts. For example, many affiliates routinely
provide technical presentations (informational as well as for formal training)
on a wide variety of topics. If you have a need for a speaker for a function on
a particular technical topic, please check with us to see if the affiliates can
meet your needs! Related to this, our affiliates are also looking for
opportunities to co-author articles with lawyers for publication in venues such
as the Florida Bar Journal. Our affiliate membership includes many excellent
writers who are also technical leaders in their fields. Please let us know if
you would like to work with an affiliate to co-author an article!
