Happy Holidays from the Legal Assistant Division. What a great time of year this is. A chill is in the air . . . football games are everywhere you turn . . . and lots of goodies to share!
I want to thank everybody that attended the 1/2 day CLE sponsored by the LAD in late September. The turnout was great. It is your participation that makes these events worthwhile for
everyone. We will keep you posted of upcoming CLE events. The LAD is in the process of compiling a current membership directory and hopes to send it out during December. Sort of a
"gift" from the LAD. I know that I use my membership directory all the time, so I am looking forward to an updated version. I hope all of you find the directory useful, as I do.
The outpouring of help to those families of the victims of the September 11 attacks has been more than ever expected. What a great example Americans set for the rest of the world when it
comes to caring for those around us. In light of the September 11 tragedy let us be extra giving during the holidays this year.
Don't forget that local charities need your help. Contribute to a food bank, pick a name off an angel tree and contribute to that child, or locate a less fortunate family in your area and
see that Santa truly does make his rounds. Let's continue the spirit of giving and cooperation long after the holidays are over. It is little acts of charity and kindness that keep on
giving year after year after year.
This is also a good time of year to reflect on goals accomplished and to resolve to work on items that need change. Let's all take some time to assess ourselves rather than judge others
and try to make changes that will better us as individuals.
