 Citizens in the Sunshine? Don’t Get Burned!

A public information session sponsored by the Sarasota
County Bar Association

(September, 2013 – Sarasota, FL) Do
you currently serve on a government board or advisory board? Do you represent others
who do? Are you confused about social media, emails, text messages, social
gatherings and the implications for Florida’s Government in the Sunshine and
Public Records laws? Given today’s technology and the increasing explosion of
electronic communications, you are not alone. Learn how to navigate these
complex issues, comply with the law and avoid the heat.

On Friday, October 11th,
attorney Pat Gleason, special counsel for open government for Attorney General
Pam Bondi, will present a practical, “real world scenario” information session
designed for those who serve on local government boards or advisory boards,
those who represent them, and individuals who are interested in the intricacies
of open meetings and public records laws. Bring your questions and get the
answers you need.

The workshop will be held at Michael’s
on East Ballroom, beginning at 8:30 am with a continental breakfast, followed
by the program from 9 – 11 am.  The cost is $20 per person. Advanced registration is required, and

This session is made possible by the
support of two area law firms – Icard Merrill and Williams Parker ­­– in
conjunction with the Sarasota County Bar Association.
