A Message From The President

Dear Member,

I am incredibly honored and proud to serve as your 2023-2024 Martin County Bar Association President. This year’s theme is Engagement. Your MCBA Board of Directors has already begun working hard to bring our members an engaging year. I am asking our members to engage in our bar association by considering being a sponsor, by attending our CLE luncheons, by attending a social event, and/or by being involved with an MCBA committee. The MCBA only thrives when YOU are engaged!

Of course, by now, you have probably heard the news that the MCBA has a new Executive Director. Lynne Poirier will take the helm of the MCBA effective July 11. Lynne joins the MCBA after 23 years as the Communications Director of the Palm Beach County Bar Association. Please come to one of our upcoming events and introduce yourself to Lynne. Let’s make her feel welcome!

President’s Speaker Series Announced for 2023-2024

Please mark your calendar and join us for my President’s Speaker Series. These membership lunches are held on the third Friday of every month at Monarch Country Club in Palm City from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Programs are educational, informative and provide great networking opportunities! Plus, lunches include CLE and are FREE to all MCBA members and the judiciary. Now, that’s a great member benefit!
