Attend
The Spring Meeting!

2002 Spring Symposium:
The Spring Symposium is coming to San Francisco
(April 25-26, 2002). There will be a wide variety
of great programs for you to attend [link to
brochure]. In addition to committee meetings
and a wine tour of Napa and Sonoma counties,
you will have to choose among 42 CLE programs.
Five of the 17 RP Division programs are sponsored
by the I Group, including the Eight Annual Mortgage
Financing Program, while the B, H, K and M Groups
have two programs each and other Groups have
created some intriguing programs. The two Section
divisions have also collaborated to sponsor
a timely program on the creation and use of
conservation easements, focusing on urban and
conservation values as well as the very significant
income and estate tax implications of these
instruments.
The Hot Tips luncheon will include a discussion
and "virtual tour" of the Presidio Project,
an ambitious re-use project combining
residential, office, cultural and recreational
uses within the confines of the former military
facility.
William H. Gates Sr. will be the featured
speaker at the Section Luncheon, while the B-2
Committee will wrap up the symposium with a
discussion of where the ABA House of Delegates
is going with proposed changes in the Model
Rules of Professional Conduct - a topic every
transaction attorney will want to hear about.
And don't forget the tremendous number of restaurants,
museums and other opportunities for fun and
entertainment throughout the San Francisco Bay
area where we can socialize and network with
our colleagues and friends from across the Section.
Everyone connected with the development of
this Symposium, from the Section leadership
and staff to your fellow practitioners, has
worked very hard on putting together the best
program possible, and we all hope you will come
and participate this April. Sign up before
