Hello BALIF Members & Friends-
Summer is always my favorite time of the year. It stays light later and there are plenty of opportunities after work for an ice cream cone with the kids or a tropical drink with friends.
This summer is particularly sweet for BALIF. I can't stop smiling after our victories in the Supreme Court. There are lots of exciting events coming up. San Francisco will be the venue for the 2013 ABA Convention on August 8-13, and the National LGBT Bar Association's Lavender Law Conference on August 22-24. Both will present opportunities for BALIF members to mingle and network with colleagues from across the country.
And there are two sweet, not-to-be missed, BALIF events this week. On Wednesday, July 17, BALIF is co-sponsoring Marriage in America: Life after Windsor and Perry with BASF's LGBT Equality Committee, to be immediately followed by BASF's annual LGBT Partners and Associates reception. On Thursday, July 18, BALIF is co-sponsoring Shattering the LGBT Judicial Glass Ceiling with AABA's LGBT Committee. For registration information, see the newsletter below.
I hope to see you both nights! And enjoy the summer.
