BAR-0-METER - JAN 2023 Page 2From the PresidentAaron BreitenbachAs I reached the halfway point in my presidency this past month, I think I experienced the equivalent of a mid-life crisis.Don’t worry, I didn’t use the WBA credit card to buy a sports car. But you will see some evidence of a beard in this month’sphotos. [What can I say, the first lady likes a scruffy looking nerf herder.] I had never let my facial hair grow for more than afew days, but my mid-term crisis self said I needed to do something new……like COVID. Most everyone I knew had already had it, so maybe I was missing out on something there. Now that I havecrossed it off the list, I must say, I’m not a fan. The upside is it allowed me an excuse to grow the aforementioned beard andto watch 4+ seasons of Yellowstone for the first time. I guess I will see how this season goes before deciding whether it wasworth it. Another thing my COVID quarantine allowed me to do is to reflect on the first half of my term. Together, we increased socialparticipation at events like Judges' Day, the December holiday party, and the recent judicial reception. Sponsorships remainstrong from our firms and individual members, which allows us to host events like that. Committees are increasinglycommitted to meeting in person (except for the past month or so due to the holidays). But the returns are not all positive (again, like the beard). Membership continues to decline, though not as precipitously asin previous years. While I have and will continue to champion the inherent good in being a part of the WBA, there remainbarriers to entry. For some it’s cost, but I hazard to guess that most folks spend more on streaming services in a month ortwo than the cost of membership. No, I believe the greatest barrier to membership (and, more importantly, engagement) is feeling isolated from the rest of theBar. Why would I want to spend time with the opposing counsel that drives me nuts or others whose practice is so differentfrom mine that we have little in common professionally? While there may be several answers to that, I was reminded ofwhat largely introduced me to the rest of the Bar so many years ago: the Bar Show. Like most successes the WBA will have this year and in the future, I can claim no ownership of the Bar Show. It is a traditionthat reaches back several decades under the stewardship of names like Richard Honeyman, Dick Hite, Lee Woodard, KenGale, Kari Schmidt, Jeff Emerson, Linda and Don Peterson, Tim Moore, and many others (these are the names that came tomy mind as I wrote this column two weeks past deadline, so forgive me for not doing the research on those before, after,and in between). For those unfamiliar, the Bar Show features WBA members who enjoy singing and dancing (and some who do them well)performing well-known songs adapted to law or Kansas-themed lyrics. We’ve had judges and pillars of the legal communitydressed as pigs and frogs and in any number of outlandish costumes. Friendships are formed over the course of months ofrehearsals, set building, and costume design. Romances (sometimes short-lived) have been known to spring up along theway. I like to recall the time that a visiting choreographer asked another cast member if there was “something going on”between Joni and I, not knowing we were married due to our differing last names. I’m proud to say the only person I’ve had(or been rumored to have) an affair with is my beautiful bride. But stories like this don’t come from CLEs, committee meetings, or monthly luncheons. While those are also important, weneed a space for members to let their hair down (or cover it with an outlandish wig). We need an environment where we nolonger see one another as opposing counsel or from different firms. In the Bar Show (whether as cast, crew, or audience),we have an opportunity to see and enjoy one another simply as people…people who oddly share a common appreciationfor cramming legalese into the Bohemian Rhapsody or our favorite Broadway hit. In the coming weeks, the current generation of musical and crafty volunteers will be meeting to discuss what the Bar Showmight look like in its next iteration. When the opportunity arises, I hope you strongly consider joining the production,sponsoring it, or simply buying some popcorn and enjoying the show. Because, unlike my beard, the Bar Show must go on.

There's No Place Like HomeBy Tara TerwilligerIn March of 2020, I distinctly remember sitting acrossfrom one of my law school classmates at a localrestaurant in Williamsburg, Virginia. We were trying toenjoy one last social outing before we had to buckledown to prepare for our spring 1L final exams. Ourconversation shifted from commiserating about startingto outline in preparation for finals to the possibility thatwe may not be returning to campus due to COVID-19.While my friend was convinced that our law schoolexperience was about to drastically change, I expresseddoubt that COVID-19 could have an impact so severe.Little did I know, that would be the last time I had dinnerwith that classmate. A few days later, we received noticethat the semester would resume via Zoom. Everyoneliving in on-campus housing, including that classmate,were given only a few days’ notice that they had toevacuate their dorms. I helped her pack up herbelongings and drove her to the airport to catch a flightback home to Arizona. That was the last time I saw herin person, as she opted to finish out her degree online. When the school announced that we would not bereturning to campus for the remainder of our 1L year(and potentially much longer), I and many of myclassmates were confronted with a difficult decision.Most of us were a long way from home and trying tofigure out whether we were going to stay in the area toride out the storm or pack up and head home while wecould still book a flight, as it was only a matter of timebefore the airlines shut down completely for a period oftime.Prior to law school, I had lived my entire life in Kansas(predominately in the Wichita area, aside from a fewyears in Manhattan to attend college at Kansas StateUniversity). I wouldn’t say I was dying to leave, but Icertainly didn’t have any intention of moving back once Ileft. I loved the East Coast and genuinely enjoyed mytime there. However, the COVID-19 pandemic broughtabout many challenges that I could have neveranticipated. It changed my perspective about being sofar away from not only my family, but also thecommunity that helped raise me. I ultimately decided to stay in Virginia during law school,even though for the next year and a half all of myclasses were remote. I mostly made the decision to staybecause I was already paying rent on an apartmentthere, but also because I watched classmates andprofessors who were home with their families struggleto find a quiet space without interruptions to attendclass and study. While online law school had its perks:like rolling out of bed right before class started or re-watching a recorded lecture about the rule againstperpetuities because you didn’t quite understand it thefirst time (or the second or the third); it also had itsshortcomings. Online school was incredibly isolating.Zoom study sessions weren’t as effective as meeting upin the law library, and all of our social events werecanceled during the pandemic. The isolation from mypeers made being away from home even more difficult. Iworried about my family a great deal and had lots offears about my ability to make the 20+ hour drive backhome on my own if any of my family members got sickand I needed to be home for them.One year after the pandemic first started, during thesecond semester of my 2L year, I was contemplatingwhether I was going to apply to summer internships inVirginia, like I had done the year before, or if it was timefor me to return home. The COVID-19 pandemic taughtme a lot of things about adapting to unexpectedsituations, how technology can be the best and worstthing to ever happen to society, and the importance ofgeographic proximity to the people in my life that weremost important. For these reasons, I decided to moveback to Kansas when I never thought I would. Whenreflecting on what was most important in guiding thisdecision, I felt called to return to Kansas to serve thecommunity that raised me. It’s a call that I don’t know Iwould have heard before COVID quieted so much of ourworld. My internship in the summer of 2021 at theSedgwick County District Attorney’s Office furtherconfirmed that calling, and I’m thankful for theopportunity to return home to start my career.

Wichita Bar Association Holiday PartyBAR-0-METER - JAN 2023 Page 8Inn of Court Prairie PinesOn December 8, the Inn of Court celebrated theholidays at Prairie Pines for a mystery dinner. Thiswas one of the Inn’s first events to include guests ofmembers. It was a great turnout, and several Innmembers had an opportunity to participate or havea special greeting from the cast members. Two inour party were chosen to argue as to why they arethe better pick to get free drinks. Sarah Mackeultimately won the crowd vote with a less is moreapproach and just said there is no reason (she justwanted free drinks!). Their murder mystery wassolved, and it should come as no surprise that thesuspect was - David Prelle Eron! Although he ispresumed innocent until proven guilty, the sweaterreally says it all. Case closed!

Mail payment to:Wichita Bar Association, 225 N. Market, Suite 200 Wichita, KS 67202BAR-0-METER - JAN 2023Continuing with a 20-year tradition, the Wichita Bar Association Young Lawyers Section raised donations forthe Salvation Army to assist with local programs as well as to provide Christmas gifts to those residing at ourlocal Salvation Army shelter.On Wednesday, December 7, 2022, YLS members attended the annual Salvation Army Christmas Party hostedby the YLS. Thanks to the generosity of the Wichita Bar Association members, YLS contributed over $9,300 indonations, gifts, food, and in-kind services to the Salvation Army Emergency Shelter. Cookies were decoratedwith care (and some with a little less care and more flare). Many of the families and individuals also had theirphotographs taken by Linda and Mel Gregory who generously continue to donate their time and talents tohelp make this event a success.Taking time from Christmas preparations, Santa Claus, Rudolph, and Frosty also made a special appearance tohelp hand out presents to all the kids who were mostly smiles when approaching Santa. Rudolph even shotsome hoops with the kids (a spot in the NBA undoubtedly awaits him after he retires from leading Santa’ssleigh). As with every year, seeing all the smiles and joy of these children and families unequivocally makes allthe Christmas-shopping, gift-wrapping, and cookie-baking worth it.This year (and every year) was only a success due to generous giving and unwavering support from themembers of the WBA. So, to each of you that donated and to those who have supported us over the years,thank you. Page 11Young Lawyers Salvation Army Christmas PartyGuest Speaker:Gayle B.
