Greetings, the ELULS Affiliate Committee has had four well-attended and
entertaining yet productive mixers this fall and winter to get the year kicked
off in fine fashion. The October mixer in Jacksonville was held at Square One on
the 18th, and a mixer was held at Andrew’s Capitol Bar and Grill in Tallahassee
on November 8th. After the New Year, we held a mixer in Tampa at the Ybor City
Brewery on January 24th, and the latest mixer was held in Gainesville on
February 28th at the U.F. President’s house in conjunction with the University
of Florida Water Institute Symposium and the Public Interest Environmental
Conference. Thanks to all who sponsored and attended. The last two mixers of the
year will be held in Fort Lauderdale on April 25th, and in Orlando in mid to
late May. More information will be forthcoming on those two mixers.
As always, the Affiliate Committee is looking for papers to be published in the
Section Reporter. Our next publishing deadline will be June 15th for Affiliate
Committee members. We are also seeking a commitment from affiliate members to
potentially co-author an article for publication in the Florida Bar Journal.
If you are interested in writing an article for the Section Reporter or Bar
Journal, or interested in sponsoring a mixer, please contact David Bass at
407-481-9006, or by e-mail at
dbass@esciencesinc.com.
It’s not too early to be thinking about the ELULS Annual Update in Amelia Island
in August. We sent out an e-mail to the affiliates requesting ideas for topics
and speakers and are currently analyzing the responses to assist the Section in
developing the agenda. Thanks for all the ideas, and please send more if you
have them.
Stay tuned for more updates on the Affiliate Committee.
