Bar Leadership Institute planned again for this fall

Issue May 2004

MBA President Richard C. Van Nostrand presents the MBA Community Service Award to David E. Sullivan, Hampshire County Register of Probate on March 17 at Union Station, Northampton.
MBA President-Elect Kathleen O'Donnell has decided the MBA once again will hold a Bar Leadership Institute for the association's affiliated bars.

The event is scheduled for Friday, Oct. 29 at the Warren Conference Center in Ashland and will provide bar leaders with networking opportunities as well as useful ideas and information for leading their associations.

Although the agenda is still being developed, there are plans to provide more opportunities for bar leaders to interact and to repeat some of the most popular panels and discussion sections.

Presidents, presidents-elect, and executive directors are invited to attend the event for free, and other board members may attend for a fee.

Several events are coming up soon for affiliated bars, including the following:
