Steering Committee Event
Steering Committee Wine Social

Paula Andrews and Dick Kimball of the Business Law Section invite you to start the programming year off with a wine social at the Boston Bar Association.

As one of the largest sections of the Boston Bar Association, it is sometimes difficult to keep sight of one of the best resouces available to committee co-chairs - each other. This event will provide an opportunity to learn about other members of the steering committee, with the hope that spending this time together will encourage future collaboration and networking. We look forward to seeing you there!
