Legacy Planning Seminar

Mark Baumann — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 04:18:33 +0000

Please join me for the Legacy Planning Seminar co-sponsored by the Jefferson Community Foundation and Clallam Community Foundation this coming Friday, September 16th from 10:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. For Bar members, especially ones with estate planning practices, this is a great opportunity to learn more about planned gifts by one of the foremost authorities in our State, Bill Zook. This will be an opportunity to learn about charitable remainder trusts, gift annuities and other planned gifts. The WSBA has approved the seminar for two CLE credits, and the cost of the seminar and lunch is only $25.00. The seminar will also be held at the Northwest Maritime Center in Port Townsend which is a really spectacular venue for a seminar.

The Clallam Community Foundation has also co-sponsored this event and is eager for as many Port Angeles and Sequim lawyers to attend as possible. The Clallam Community Foundation (which is a part of United Way) is a great way of reinvesting in our community, and attendees will have an opportunity to learn more about the Community Foundation and other non-profit
organizations in Clallam County.

I really urge as many estate planning attorneys to attend as possible. It should be a fun time to get together and I look forward to seeing as many people there as possible.
