Fund-raising Party for Staff Member: CBA/DBA administrative assistant Julie Webb was diagnosed with bone cancer this past February and has undergone a difficult regimen of chemotherapy and surgery. The good news is that her prognosis is excellent. However, Julie has been left with some extraordinary medical bills. To help with these expenses, the bar association will throw a fund-raising party on Saturday August 29, from noon to 4 p.m. at the Boulder home of Mary Alyce and Mike Driver. The event will include a barbecue and silent auction.

All CBA/DBA members are invited to attend and/or donate items or services for the silent auction (be creative)! Julie is a valued employee with a special spirit. Call Reba Nance at the CBA for more information, or check out our website at www.cobar.org/partyforjulie. A bank account also will be set up for monetary donations.
