We're still hearing the 'buzz' about what a great event our 24th Annual Justice For All Ball was this year. Thanks to all who came out and participated in some way to make this year's Ball a rocking success. Whether you were there or not, we share with you below some of the many moments of fun from the evening and invite you to plan on joining us for our 2013 event.
For those who want to purchase photos from the 2012 Ball or Patron Party, you can do so here: BALL and PATRON PARTY or click on any of the pictures below for the Ball or Patron Party Photo Galleries. Links can also be found on our FACEBOOK page.
Help us create an even better 2013 JFAB -- please take our survey by using the link posted on our Facebook page: FACEBOOK. One lucky person will be selected from all those who answer our survey to win a pair of tickets for the 2013 JFAB.
Even though we've celebrated, the year is not over yet -- it's time for the applause! Please mark your calendar for Wednesday, December 12th for our annual year-end CLE and Volunteer Appreciation Awards & Reception (see sidebar for details.) Don't forget to send Linton Carney your volunteer hours for 2012 -- we don't want anyone to be left out. Register in advance for this event at: CLE & AWARDS or by sending an email to Linton Carney or on our FACEBOOK page.
Congratulations go out to The Project's Vice-Chair, Jan Hayden of Baker Donelson, who was voted one of CityBusiness' 2012 Women of the Year. A luncheon will be held at the Hyatt Regency on November 16, 2012. Register here: CBIZWOTY
As well, kudos to SOLACE, which celebrates its 10th Anniversary this year. The organization, founded by past Board Chairs, The Honorable Jay Zainey, Judge, US District Court, Eastern District of Louisiana and Mark Surprenant of Adams & Reese, has assisted over 1,000 members of the legal community and their families in times of need since its inception. There are now more than 7,700 SOLACE members in Louisiana and the program has expanded to 11 states and Puerto Rico.
Enjoy the fun from JFAB 2012 below and look forward to seeing you at the Volunteer Appreciation Awards in December!
All the best,
Rachel
