Fifty Years ago President Eisenhower proclaimed the first Law Day: a “day of national dedication to the principle of government under law.”
On May 1 celebrate the 50th anniversary of Law Day with your League when we host an opportunity for the public to meet its Superior Court Judges. The Superior Court is a trial court in which a judge or jury decides a case by looking at evidence and listening to facts and then applying the law. Citizens, as jurors, are vital to the process.
Get out in the redwoods on a Sunday afternoon, help earn some money for the League, and give much appreciated aid to this year’s runners. We need about ten people to pour water, cut up oranges, and make sure we leave the Avenue beautiful. We set up our table about 10 A.M. and usually have a tailgate lunch about 1 P.M., clean up the site and then we're free to enjoy the rest of the day.
League volunteers earn $150 to $200 for the League and receive their own Avenue tee shirt (no sweatshirts this year, sorry!). Please sign up now if you can help, and I will confirm with you closer to the date. Call me at 442-7495. Leave your name, contact number and tee shirt size, as your shirt must be pre-ordered to be at the aid station on May 4. I'm looking forward to a great day. Remember, NO experience necessary!
