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.
