Colleagues,
As Elizabeth mentioned at our last meeting, I will be taking over as president of the CCBA FLS in September. I want to thank Elizabeth and her fellow officers, Laura Mancuso and Robin Krane, for all their hard work last year. I look forward to working with Meredith McKell Graff and Jennifer Kirkman in the upcoming year.
I will be using the summer “down” months in preparation of our Fall section meeting. If people have suggestions, please feel free to call or email me. I have already had suggestions about a detailed Treasurer report each month.
Also, please note there has been a form change on the Washington Court’s website. We have a new “Declaration in Support of Parenting Plan” as of this month. It is downloadable for free here: http://www.courts.wa.gov/forms/
