Getting to Seattle
Well, I’m about to head to Seattle to start the set up process for Annual Meeting. A few of the ACC staff heads to the site to prepare before our attendees join us for a CLE extravaganza. I’m particularly looking forward to our Going Green track of programs. It’s been a hot topic for awhile and it’s going to be great to hear how other in-house counsel are helping their companies comply with appropriate laws as well as be socially conscious.
In the same vein, I encourage you to check out our Green-house Counsel tip of the week. It's a weekly tidbit of environmental information, provided to us by Holland + Knight, to help you help your company and your legal department be more green. I know, I know, I've been highlighting this product a lot, but it's really something that is of great interest to me, and to us here at ACC. At Annual Meeting '07, we went coursebook-less, by preparing customized emails for attendees which contained all of their course materials. This was our answer to cutting the use of paper and creating less of a footprint on the environment. It was received so well that we decided to do it again this year. And Seattle is a great place to embrace these green initiatives, as it is a city that prides itself on being clean & green.
I'm looking forward to getting out west. If you're coming to the meeting, let's hear from you! What are you most excited about?
