Relay for Life:
In June 2008, members of Connolly, Tacon & Meserve will come together at the
Relay for Life of Thurston County to celebrate cancer survivors, remember
those we've lost, and fight back against cancer. Since cancer never
sleeps, we will take to the track and Relay for 24 hours and raise funds for
the American Cancer Society. We have an ambitious goal of $10,000 to
raise as a team, and we would love your help. Every step (either with
feet or finances) brings us closer to the cure! For more information, visit
our team website and save
the date for June 27-28, 2008!
Carter Hick places 10th in
Willamette Valley Stage Race:
From April 4, to April 6, 2008, Carter
Hick competed in the Willamette Valley Stage Race. This road bike race
is geared more for the climbers than the sprinters, taking place in and
around the foothills of Oregon's coastal range between the towns of Eugene
and Corvallis. This year's filed of competitors included about 80
riders from Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. Although Carter
might not be considered a "true" climber, Carter was able to hang on to the
mountain goats as they rode as fast as they could up multiple
hills/mountains. As a result, Carter finished in the top 20 during
every stage (with a 5th place finish on Stage 2), and managed to pull off a
10th place overall finish. Carter was definitely happy with his
overall result, especially considering that his work keeps him from training
as much as many of his competitors. Carter credits his strong finish
to the same tenacity and "never say die" attitude that he brings to his law
practice. Indeed, the practice of law is results oriented, and
participating in results oriented activities helps him fine-tune his
instincts and skills.

Washington Rising Stars:
CTM lawyer Lenny K. Lucenko was just identified by
Washington Law and

consecutive year of being named a “Rising Star,” an award which honors
lawyers under the age of 40, or within their first 10 years of practice.
Volleyball Champions:
Since 1988, CTM has sponsored a six-person co-ed volleyball team that plays
in both the Lacey and Olympia Parks & Recreation leagues at the C-Major
level. Most of the team has been together for years, including Captain Chuck
Szurszewski and Assistant Captain Jim Connolly. The team, which is cleverly
named “CTM,” always has a good time and occasionally finishes at the top. In
the fall 2007 Lacey Parks League, CTM finished as regular season Champs and
then swept through the season-ending tournament undefeated to claim the
coveted championship t-shirts.
