09:00 AM - 4:00 pm

Registration Deadline

Friday, December 13, 2024



 
 
The registration package includes two fees: the meeting registration and your guest room reservation.
PBA has reserved a block of deluxe guest rooms featuring one king or queen bed, or two double beds.  Please indicate your guest room preference which will be noted but cannot be guaranteed.  The meeting registration includes Friday's welcome party, Saturday's breakfast, lunch (where we'll honor Judge Eaton on receiving the prestigious Eric Turner Award) and cocktail reception, and Sunday's continental breakfast; 8 hours of CLE credit, and a link to download course materials.  There are registration options for guests as well. 
 
Something different: A Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® Assessment is included in your meeting registration fee.
Saturday morning's plenary session will feature speaker Nancy O. Walsh, owner of tbdNOW and will focus on YOU. Knowing and understanding who you are creates an awareness that results in better connectivity and communication with others. A link for the Myers- Briggs Assessment will be provided within two weeks of registering for the meeting. Please complete your Assessment as soon as possible or by Jan. 6, 2025.
 
Discounted rates for judges, judicial law clerks, those in practice three years or less, and PBA YLD member first-time attendees, are available. See page 4 of the registration brochure for JRW scholarship registration fee assistance.
