March 2022

Dear Member: Simply put, it has been another extraordinary year for all of us. We know the practice of law has been forever changed. The legal profession continues to innovate and to improve how and where we practice law as well as how lawyers and the public interface with the judiciary. The CBA has been a leader in meeting the ever-changing needs of our members during these unprecedented times and I am proud of the work we have accomplished together. More so now than ever, participation in the CBA is critical to staying connected with colleagues, learning the latest developments in your practice area, and understanding the changes in the courts and the legal community impacting you and your clients. The CBA will continue to provide the exceptional, timely CLE programs you have come to expect. In addition, CBA members will benefit from new resources dedicated to professional development and lawyer well-being, personal career counseling, opportunities to improve your practice through training on marketing, improved IT and legal innovations, and possibly expand your practice by developing mediation and arbitration skills through special CBA programs. The CBA will celebrate its 150th anniversary in 2024. While we take pride in our many successes to serve our members and the greater legal community, we need your help to make sure the CBA continues to be the bar association you want, need, and deserve. In celebration of the upcoming 150th anniversary, we invite you to consider becoming a sustaining member and join other CBA leaders in making this commitment today. The CBA looks forward to another great year to challenge our members with virtual, hybrid and in-person programs, special events and activities. Please plan to join us for special programs and events in celebration of membership appreciation month in May. On behalf of the CBA Board of Managers, thank you for your continuing support of the CBA. We hope you will renew your membership and look forward to seeing you in person at the CBA

very soon. Sincerely,
