section update Environmental & Toxic Tort Section By Shelly Ellerhorst Kazmarek Mowrey Cloud Laseter LLP [email protected] T he Environmental and Toxic Tort Section has been and will continue to be busy with events. We hosted our Winter Social at Cooks and Soldiers on February 10. All who attended agreed that the food and wine were fabulous, but that the company was even better – a high bar. Later this month, we will be presenting a CLE Program discussing the relationship among lawyers, clients and environmental consultants. The lineup of presenters, including environmental lawyers and consultants, is top notch. Later in the spring, we are planning an event with the Public Interest Law Section – possible ideas include tree The Official News Publication of the Atlanta Bar Association planting or a river cleanup. If there are other events our members would like for us to explore, we would love to hear about them. We would like to thank our board of directors for their hard work in helping make these events and programs possible: Shelly Ellerhorst (Section Chair), Richard Glaze (Vice Chair/Chair-Elect), Kimberley Hale (Secretary), Randall J. Butterfield (Treasurer), Richard A. Horder (Immediate Past Chair), Members-at-Large: Hon. Stephanie S. Benfield, S. Christopher Collier, and Jody Rhodes. April 2015 THE ATLANTA LAWYER 33
