2003 Maryland State Bar Association Annual Meeting
Welcome Reception hosted by Legal Mutual
A “Shining” Success!

If you were at the Horizons Restaurant at the Clarion Resort Fontainebleau Hotel on Wednesday, June 11, 2003, between 5:30 p.m. and 9:00 p.m., you were most likely having a great time at the Legal Mutual hosted 2003 MSBA Annual Meeting Welcome Reception.

We’ve received numerous compliments about the evening, and we appreciate your comments. The staff of City Florist, Ocean City, MD, did a great job with the decorations, and the hotel staff and the Horizons Restaurant staff did a superb job with setting up and running a very smooth party for us. The lighthouse/nautical theme seemed to really capture the mood perfectly. Our yellow strobe-light buttons were worn by all. We counted one person with seven, all going at once! The music by The Rhondels was a real treat, and seemed to be enjoyed by everyone – they are obviously a class group.

We’ve included a few photographs with this article, to tease you somewhat. Keep checking our website at www.legalmutual.com where we will be posting our entire photograph collection from the evening, taken by four different photographers. Will you be among those party animals caught in the limelight? Keep checking!
