CBA Young Lawyers CLE Program & Annual Fundraiser
Friday, September 15, 2006
The Warwick Denver Hotel at 1776 Grant Street, Denver, Colorado

This CLE program offers CLE credits featuring topics geared toward young lawyers and is also a fantastic opportunity to network with young lawyers from around the state. The event will feature four renowned speakers from our Colorado legal community. Four CLE credits, including one ethics credit are being offerd for this program.

After the CLE program, we invite you to stick around for the Young Lawyers Division Annual Charity Fundraiser, benefiting the Colorado Alpine Rescue Team. The Alpine Rescue Team provides critical search and rescue services to residents of Jefferson and Clear Creek counties and assists with rescue efforts throughout the State of Colorado.

This fun and worthy event will feature a beer tasting with beer from Odell Brewing Company and other breweries, a silent auction and even more networking opportunities!
****Silent auction items include roundtrip tickets from Southwest Airlines, professional massages, life coaching sessions, a signature watch from Luisa Graff Jewelers, and much more! Both the CLE Program and the Annual Charity Fundraiser will be held at The Warwick Denver Hotel.
