2021 Summer Getaway CLE

(Pending approval for up to 9 CLE credits)

Topic: Trial Skills

The ACBA is excited to announce the rescheduling of its Spring CLE trip to Santa Fe.  This was occasioned by continuing concerns about COVID-19.  The trip has been rescheduled for August 11-14 and, accordingly, will be the  2021 Summer Getaway to Santa Fe!  The drive to Santa Fe is about 5 hours and its proximity to Denver saves you on airfare, rental cars and travel to and from the airport.  Arts and culture, natural beauty and wonderful dining options await! 

This popular educational trip begins with a meet & greet Welcome Reception on Wednesday evening. CLE seminars are on Thursday, Friday and Saturday mornings with optional group activities scheduled Thursday and Friday afternoons (as allowed by the state). 

Plan to spend time before and/or after the program to enjoy all that Santa Fe has to offer. We will be staying at the Inn and Spa at Loretto. The ACBA has contracted a limited number of rooms at a rate (based on single or double occupancy) of $155++. (Suite upgrades are sold out). You may choose to stay longer at the contracted room rate for 3 nights prior and/or 3 nights after our seminar (based on hotel availability). After you register, you will receive a link to reserve your room.

If you signed up for April and cannot attend in August, please notify the ACBA to be removed from the list. Activity registration will be separate. Due to our fiscal year end, attendees must be registered and paid by July 16th (However, we strongly recommend registering and booking hotel now due to space limitations).
