President’s Message
By: Katie Burke, Client Service Teams and Programs Director, Crowell & Moring
And just like that, summer 2023 is already in the rearview mirror. The LMA Mid-Atlantic Region enjoyed a wonderful summer including much time together in person! The Baltimore LSC hosted an educational program in July attended by approximately 30 people, followed by the regional social in DC with more than 65 attendees. Our regional Senior Leaders and LMANext special interest groups (SIGs) also hosted in person educational and social events, followed by an in-person social hosted by the Virginias LSC in Richmond with 30+ attendees. Summer was an exciting time to connect with our peers and friends in the industry!
As we settle into fall and all things pumpkin (if that’s your style), we could not be more excited about our Mid-Atlantic Regional Conference on Thursday, October 26 at the JW Marriott in Washington, DC. The conference theme, “2023andMe: Building a Stronger Community Together,” emphasizes the invaluable tools and resources that LMA provides to the legal marketing community. A Senior Leaders SIG program and pre-conference reception will take place on October 25.* We look forward to welcoming you to Washington, D.C.! Thank you to all of our conference sponsors for their support! Register today!
I would be remiss if I did not also thank the many volunteers assisting with the monumental conference effort, including dedicated Conference Co-chairs Diana Dillon and Rachel Mershon, Conference Committee leaders Amanda Acevedo (Education), Kate Boyko (Branding), Cassey Elder Povtak (Sponsorship), Caitlin Greenwood (Logistics), Rebecca Hnatowski (Your Honor Awards), Kiara Hughes (Your Honor Awards), and Alice Simons (Communications), along with their extraordinary committee members and the entire Mid-Atlantic Regional Board.
Our community is the key to our success—your talents, your experience, your ideas. Please share these skills through volunteering. We are actively seeking volunteers to participate on the Baltimore, Capital, and Virginias LSCs in 2024. If this is of interest to you, please reach out! Thank you for actively supporting the Mid-Atlantic Region across the Baltimore, Capital, and Virginias local groups.
* Separate registration is required for the October 25 Senior Leaders SIG program. Registration for the October 25 pre-conference reception at Old Ebbitt Grill is included with conference registration. Individual registration for the pre-conference reception for non-conference attendees will become available soon.
