 *** Vote NO on Amendment 40 Happy Hour- an event for all young professionals***

On October 11, 2006, the DBA- YLD is hosting a happy hour for all young professionals in the Denver Metropolitan Area in order to provide information on Amendment 40 to voting members of the community.  The event will be held at Palomino Restaurant located at 15th and Arapahoe from 5:30- 7:30.  Please bring your non-lawyer friends, as well as your lawyer friends. The DBA-YLD will buy everyone two drinks and light appetizers.  There will be speakers and printed information on Amendment 40 and why the DBA-YLD supports a NO vote.  Please RSVP to (303) 860-1115, X727, or to lunches@cobar.org.

***Lawsuit Days*** 

Its that time again.  The DBA-YLD is hosting Law Suit Days on October 12-13 from 11 am- 3 pm.  We are seeking the collection of business suits and other professional clothing.  Our goal is to collect 1,000 articles of clothing (gently used please) including business suits and other professional attire.  We will donate the items to two charitable organizations, Dress for Success Denver (Women's Clothing) and Denver Works (Men's Clothing).  These charities distribute the clothing free of charge to low income and disadvantaged unemployed individuals in the community. The professional clothes can give men and women the self-confidence and self-esteem needed for success on job interviews.  The table for this event will be manned by a number of volunteer lawyers on October 12 and 13 from 11am – 3pm.   Please contact David Uhlig at uhligd@ballardspahr.com or (303) 292-2400.
