Well it is the first day of December and if your life is anything like mine the holidays are the furthest thing from your mind. With year end budgeting and partner comp we can all use a little break. So, let’s celebrate and have some fun.

Our UALA holiday party is scheduled for Tuesday, December 22nd at 12:30. We will enjoy a wonderful lunch at the Lion House and, don’t forget, our white elephant exchange. If you plan on attending the lunch, please bring a $10 gift for this wild and crazy group to tackle and steal from each other (not to violate any harassment laws, of course). We will also have some great gifts for the chapter prize drawing.
