If you want to be a sponsor for the 2009 Scramble & Summer Barbecue, presented by the San Antonio Young Lawyers Association, you better act soon. While the golf tournament isn't until June 12, the sponsorship deadline is fast approaching. The event is a fundraiser for the San Antonio Young Lawyers Foundation and Big Brothers Big Sisters of South Texas.
The tournament includes 18 holes of golf at the Silverhorn Golf Club, use of a cart, balls, a chance at prizes, and a barbecue dinner, and costs $100 per golfer. Sponsorship packages include the event title, golf balls, holes, and tee boxes or greens. Organizers note that the entry and sponsorship fees are 20 percent less than last year.
In order for sponsors to get listed in the June issue of the Subpoena newsletter, they must submit their registration and payments by May 20.

March 2009 Events
(UPDATED 3-16)
First, Happy Texas Independence Day! (And here's hoping that the state will soon allow the sale of fireworks to commemorate this event.)
We've got a lot going on this month on the legal scene, including some low-cost CLEs, a golf tournament, and more:
MARCH 6: The San Antonio Bar Association's Litigation Section will conduct a two-hour CLE on "Changes that Could Affect Your Practice" at the Palm Restaurant downtown. Price: just $10. That's right: just ten bucks--the section will pick up the rest of the tab.
MARCH 17: The San Antonio Young Lawyers Association's monthly luncheon will take place at the usual spot, Paesano's Lincoln Heights near the Quarry.
MARCH 19: Also courtesy of SAYLA, Counselors & Cocktails, a benefit for Special Olympics and the San Antonio Young Lawyers Foundation, at The Bushnell in Monte Vista. The event includes hors d'ouevres, open bar and silent auction.
MARCH 20: The City of San Antonio will offer a free one-hour CLE regarding "New City of San Antonio Municipal Court Rules Regarding Attorney Representation of Clients with Traffic Violations" at the Cadena-Reeves Justice Center. One of the presenters is San Antonio's presiding municipal judge and the other is the city's lead prosecutor. I wonder if this CLE was spurred by the Diana Minella ticket fiasco?
MARCH 21: The Student Bar Association at St. Mary's School of Law is hosting the Law Open golf tournament at the Republic Golf Club. Donations and sponsorships are tax dedictible, and proceeds go to the SBA and the St. Mary's Law Fund. Entry fees and other information are listed on this brochure.
MARCH 24: The Fourth Court of Appeals will hold oral arguments in Kerr County and conduct a lunchtime CLE at the Inn of the Hills Resort and Conference Center. Lunch is $12; no charge for the CLE.
MARCH 26-27: The finals of the National Trial Competition for law students will take place at the Bexar County courthouse.
MARCH 27: The St. Mary's School of Law will hold its annual Homecoming CLE and Reunion, free to all law school alumni and friends. This event will offer CLEs on several subjects--some interesting titles include Terrorism, Crime & Business, Internet Legal Research, and Rising Epidemic of Childhood Obesity as a Form of Child Abuse--as well as lunch and a reception.
MARCH 27: The San Antonio Bar Association's monthly luncheon will take place at the Plaza Club. U.S. District Judge Xavier Rodriguez will be the guest speaker.
MARCH 27: The San Antonio Bar Foundation will hold its annual Peacemakers Awards Gala. The award winners have been picked, and they will receive recognition at this event. This year it will take place at the Grand Hyatt San Antonio on the Riverwalk. Click here for details on the Gala and ticket prices and availability.
If I missed anything, for this month, please let me know.
