Thank you departing <strong>BAEC</strong> Board Members!<br />
We are so appreciative for the hard work our Board of Directors does each and every year. We’d like to give a special thanks<br />
to the Board members whose tenure on the Board has come to an end. Bridget O’Connell (2019-<strong>2020</strong> President), Craig<br />
Bucki (2019-<strong>2020</strong> Treasurer), Jennifer Fay, Mario Giacobbe, and Peter Matthew Kooshoian (Directors) were a integral<br />
part of our organization and we appreciate the time and hard work they put into executing the <strong>BAEC</strong>’s mission. Thank you<br />
departing Board members!<br />

Young Lawyers Committee announces <strong>2020</strong>-<br />
2021 Executive Council<br />
Co-Chairs Sam White and Carolyn DeVaughn would like to announce the Young Lawyers<br />
Committee’s Executive Council for the <strong>2020</strong>-2021 year: Andrew Drilling, Cat McCulle, Jesslyn<br />
Holbrook, Kate Johnson, Colin Knoer, and Tom Lyons. The Executive Council is an integral part<br />
of the YLC. Its members—who are chosen based on their initiative and involvement in YLC<br />
activities—plan and run the numerous events that the YLC hosts each year.<br />
The Committee is looking forward to all that this year will bring, and will be working creatively<br />
to provide programming despite the current challenges that we face. It is an extremely active<br />
committee and is open to all <strong>BAEC</strong> members who have been admitted ten years or fewer. The<br />
Committee hosts numerous charitable and social events throughout the year, and will continue<br />
to do so. The YLC will meet every third Friday of the month via Zoom or at the <strong>BAEC</strong><br />
Headquarters at 12:15, if and when social distancing restrictions are relaxed. Lunch is provided<br />
during in-person meetings.<br />
Active participation in the YLC is an easy way to take that first step toward getting involved<br />
in the local legal community and networking with your peers. Most of the YLC’s events are<br />
completely free and designed to be welcoming in order to make it easy for newcomers. Stay tuned<br />
for the YLC’s Fall Kickoff Happy Hour in September and the Evening with the Judiciary in<br />
November. If you would like more information about how you can get involved with the YLC,<br />
