Hampton Roads Chapter The Chapter was formed in 1992 as the South Hampton Roads Chapter and is now known as the Hampton Roads Chapter. It draws its members from a wide geographic area, including Newport News and Hampton on the Peninsula, as well as Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Portsmouth, and Suffolk on the Southside. The Chapter's goals include providing members with enhanced benefits such as increased opportunities for networking, referrals, and social interaction with your peers and members of the judiciary. We invite you to join the Hampton Roads Chapter of the VWAA so that you can participate in the many upcoming events planned. For more information, please contact Karen Zello, President, or Mary Morgan, President-Elect (see below list of officers). Latest News
The Chapter participated as a team in the run/walk for the Children’s Hospital of the King’s Daughters (CHKD) on June 19, 2010, wearing our new Chapter t-shirts. It was a good cause to support and we had a lot of fun!
The Chapter had a good turn out for the holiday Spirit of Norfolk dinner cruise on December 8, 2009. As you can see from the slide show, we burned up the dance floor and had a lot of fun!
The photographs above are from the Chapter’s second quarter meeting on October 21, 2009, which was held at the law office of Vandeventer Black LLP.
On September 23, our chapter hosted a "You Be The Judge" Seminar, followed by a Judicial Reception.
"You Be The Judge” seminar on September 23, 2009 The seminar was very interesting and successful thanks to our distinguished panel (from left to right: Delegate Paula J. Miller, the Honorable John W. Brown, Honorable Michelle J. Atkins, and Honorable Roxie O. Holder). Sheila Costin served as the moderator. The seminar provides lawyers who are interested in becoming judges with an understanding of how the selection process works and helps to put them in a competitive position for a judgeship. The Judicial Reception honored all judges appointed in the Hampton Roads area in 2009. Eleven of the twelve new judges were present as well as many other local judges. The event was open to all attorneys and judges in the area and there were over 100 attendees. We thank all of our sponsors for their support, which made this event such a success.
