RLSA… the association for legal professionals
This is the title of an article written by Robin Holbert,
president of RLSA…the association for legal professionals
in Richmond, Virginia and Vice President of VALS…the association
for legal professionals.
RLSA
has been working hard to come up with a program which would
offer continuing legal education, serve as a fundraiser,
work on membership and have fun at the same time. Robin
came up with the idea of a good old fashion pajama party. This
pajama party will provide some thought-and-discussion-provoking
legal education in a comfortable, casual setting. It
is scheduled to take place a few weeks before Thanksgiving
in quiet country surroundings about 45 minutes from Richmond
at a retreat-like facility in the country. This will
afford the attendees an opportunity to conveniently retreat
for some quality “me” time before those holiday events
begin.
You
may be asking, “how is this a fundraiser?” RLSA is
hosting this legal retreat, but this fun and educational
event is open to all who may wish to attend. The planning
for this even is still under construction; however, the plan
is to have just some good old fashion fun on Friday night. On
Saturday there will be a series of CLE topics which will
be facilitated by various members. Our hope is that
since this event is open to anyone, that with some publicity
throughout the firms in the Richmond area, we will be able
to generate some new members. RLSA is excited about
this opportunity to offer fun, education and fellowship to
the legal community.
