If we decide to do a CLE at the May meeting, I'll be happy to do a final legislative report for 2011; otherwise, I'll do it at the June meeting. Personally, I'd like to see the May meeting be "organizational business" to some long-range goads and to include reports from each subcommittee on the scope of what each does and a call for volunteers to increase participation.
