2010 ABA Forum on Franchising Community Service Event
Hosted by the Women's Caucus and Corporate Counsel Division


JOIN US!

This year's ABA Forum on Franchising Community Service Event will take place right on Ocean Beach, at the mouth of the San Diego River. Come join your friends and colleagues for a wetlands improvement project benefiting the San Diego River Park Foundation, in an area containing habitats for a number of endangered animals and plants.

Each year, the annual community service event is a collegial and interactive opportunity to do some good while having fun. This year, we've got the warm ocean breeze, gorgeous scenery and the vibe from an eclectic and quintessential San Diego beach. If you've never joined us before, consider making this the year you do.

Buses pick us up at the Hotel at 8:00 a.m. and return us at 1:00 p.m. Family members are welcome, and donations to the Foundation are gratefully accepted.

No experience necessary – just bring a laid-back attitude, and maybe a pair of sunglasses!
