BCBA Committees

Much of the work of the Boone County Bar Association is performed by its committees.

Executive Committee members are listed on the Officers page.

A number of standing committees are defined by the BCBA Bylaws, and several special committees also have been formed.

2011-12 committee assignments will be announced by incoming President Marvin Tofle. If you want to sign up for a committee, please fill out the 2011-12 Committee Sign-Up and Program Suggestions form and get it to Marvin. His contact information is on the form.

After committees are appointed, Marvin asks that committee chairs call organizational meetings of their committees as soon as possible to identify issues that need to be addressed and to plan activities. After organizational meetings, committee chairs are asked to share their plans with Marvin. Committee recommendations which require court action must be submitted to Marvin for consideration by the Executive Committee before they are forwarded to the court.

2011-12 committee assignments were announced on September 30, 2011 by BCBA President Marvin Toflfe and are listed in the table below.
