DICTA


The Knoxville Bar Association is the premiere professional membership association for lawyers in the East Tennessee area.  Our 1,400+ members represent the broadest spectrum of the legal community, from senior partners at Tennessee largest law firms to solo practitioners, to corporate counsel to government attorneys and law students.

Beginning in February, 2008, the Knoxville Bar Association monthly publication DICTA changed from a newsletter to a magazine.  The new DICTA magazine includes articles about changes in the law, profiles on area attorneys and judges, important court decisions, and other topics of interest to our readers.  Each issue will include a feature article on a substantive law topic and several new columns including “What it Means to Be A Lawyer” and “Law Office Management Tips”.   

Advertising opportunities are available on a first-come, first-served basis and a sample of the new magazine and the advertising contract has been included in this packet.  Four color full page ads are available but because of the premium location and visibility offered at this level, I do not anticipate them to be available long. 

DICTA, is currently read by some of the most educated, affluent and influential readers in the East Tennessee area. Your organization has the opportunity to reach every attorney in Knoxville and the surrounding counties (more than 2500).  We also include law office administrators and bar leaders from other counties in our circulation.  Our readership gives you the reach and access you need to gain exposure and to succeed. In addition to our circulation of approximately 1,600, each issue is posted on our website.

On behalf of the Knoxville Bar Association, I invite you to join in the excitement about our new magazine.  We look forward to partnering with you to more effectively meet the needs of lawyers and legal professionals throughout East Tennessee.

Golf Tournament
Sponsorship
Opportunities


We have started planning for the Knoxville Bar Association/Barristers annual charity golf
tournament which will be held this year on Friday, September 12, 2008 at Avalon. We are very
pleased to report that last year's tournament was a great success! This strong player support
combined with the generosity of our sponsors made it possible for us to donate $2,000 to
charity. This year, we expect the tournament to be even more successful with over 100
golfers/lawyers anticipated. The proceeds from the tournament will benefit the charitable
endeavors of the Knoxville Barristers including:

  •  Staffing a Mobile Meals route twice a week
  •  Staffing a Volunteer work day at Second Harvest food bank
  •  Serving breakfast once a month at Knox Area Rescue Ministries
  •  Continued support of the Knox Area Rescue Ministries Job Training Program
  •  Purchase of Christmas gifts for children/ families residing in Knoxville's homeless shelters

 
We are inviting prominent local firms and businesses to help sponsor our golf tournament. The
requested donation is $250 per hole. This partnership will provide a sign at a designated hole
acknowledging your generous donation, an official 2008 KBA/Barrister golf shirt as our gift to
commemorate your participation!

We've also added two exciting sponsorship packages for this year's tournament: the Silver and
Gold Corporate Sponsor Packages. Imagine having the opportunity to interact with every
golfer/attorney playing in the tournament B now you can. Businesses can set up a table near
the registration desk or at the sponsored hole. Hand out your businesses information while
meeting new contacts and potential customers. Plus, under these two packages, a
representative of your business is teamed with a group to play in the tournament.
All sponsors will also be acknowledged in all printed material pertaining to the tournament and
in any press coverage that may result. Also, photos and sponsor acknowledgments will be
highlighted in a special section on the KBA website, www.knoxbar.org, and in DICTA, our
monthly newsletter.


The tournament will once again be held at Avalon Landmark Golf Club with a shotgun start at
1:30 p.m. on Friday, September 12, 2008. This is an excellent opportunity for you and your
company to network with our members in a casual and laid‐back setting. Don't miss a one of a kind
opportunity to solidify your existing business relationships and a chance for you to create
new ones!
