Briefly...
A Word from the
Executive Director
By Kit Kasner
410? Yes 410 attendees convened at the TPCBA’s 117th Annual
Lincoln Day Banquet on February 7th this year, gathering to
celebrate our change-over to a new TPCBA year with another ambitious
board of trustees (see pages 14-17), committee chairs and section presidents.
If you missed this banquet, you will find a summary and photos in this issue.
Have you paid your 2025 TPCBA membership dues to support the Bar??
Some members are still trying to use their courthouse ID badge without a
2025 sticker on the back. Remember, you need that sticker and your card
must be activated by security. Don’t wait in line! Pay your dues, use your
card and those little glass doors will swing open and welcome you to the
courthouse. Visit our website to pay online at www.tpcba.com. Are you a new
member and need a badge? Working with courthouse security, we are taking
photos for new badges once each month, so don’t miss getting on that list.
Email director@tpcba.com – next two dates are: April 17, May 15, between
9:00 am and 9:30 am. only. No drop-ins please for these photo sessions. You
must be on the list in advance for security purposes.
Have you found something interesting you’d like to share with other
members? Write an article about it for our magazine. Sometimes the best way
to get new information out to members is by submitting your article to the
Pierce County Lawyer magazine! Email director@tpcba.com
