Calendar of Events
Washington County Bar Association

The WCBA meets monthly on the second Wednesday of each month, except for the months of July and August each year. Monthly meetings usually are preceded by a one-hour CLE beginning at 5:15 pm; topics range throughout various practice areas such as family law, criminal law, juvenile law, and probate matters. Dinner is served at 6:30 pm at the Old Spaghetti Factory in Tanasbourne. Dinner speakers routinely include the Oregon Supreme Court, the Oregon Court of Appeals, and the Presiding Judge of Washington County, each on an annual basis. Other speakers change from year to year, but have included such topics as the new Trailblazer team composition, political cartoon drawing, and keeping Oregon green.
