The WSBA Board of Governors (BOG) is holding their July Meeting in Marysville. It will be held on Friday, July 23 and Saturday, July 24 at the Tulalip Resort Casino. When the BOG holds meetings outside of the Seattle office, we collaborate with local bar associations to bestow the WSBA Local Hero Award to those who have made noteworthy contributions to their communities. The WSBA Board President Francis Adewale and Executive Director Terra Nevitt then present the award to the honoree during a Local Hero Lunch where all Snohomish County Bar Association members are invited. We're all looking forward to being in Marysville!
Below you will find more information on the nomination process and lunch RSVP instructions.
