LGN was proud to sponsor the 2nd Annual WithAll ForeAll Golf Tournament last month at The Minikahda Club in Minneapolis. All proceeds from the fundraiser went directly to WithAll to support their mission of creating a cultural shift focusing on health and well-being instead of weight and appearance so all can feel good in their bodies and at peace with food. The money raised will help the organization provide resources and education to parents, teachers, coaches, and health providers along with recovery support grants to those in treatment for an eating disorder.

We are honored to be a partner in this important work. LGN associate Derek Waller was recently elected to serve as WithAll’s board chair and he attended the event with colleagues from LGN’s health law practice, including David Asp, Jennifer Jacobs, and David Hahn.

We were excited to host the latest reception for the Committee to Support the Antitrust Laws (COSAL) at Lockridge Grindal Nauen’s Minneapolis office. It was an inspiring evening of cocktails, dinner, and discussion among the antitrust community in Minneapolis. COSAL is the nation’s premier advocacy organization, representing antitrust lawyers and supporting pro-enforcement antitrust legislation.

LGN is proud to have a rich history with COSAL. Many LGN attorneys are active members and serve on various committees. Some highlights are below.

Dick Lockridge was a founding member of COSAL and was presented with the Curt Flood Award “for going to bat for antitrust law” during the 30^th anniversary of COSAL in 2016.  

Joe Bruckner has been active in COSAL for over 35 years. He served as president in the late 2000s and is now an emeritus member of its executive committee. He also serves on COSAL’s amicus and policy committees.

Heidi Silton took over as president during the COVID pandemic. She was honored for her inspiring leadership during the uncertain time with the 2021 COSAL President’s Award. She continues to be an active member and leader of the organization.

Other LGN attorneys who have been and continue to be active members of COSAL include Charles Nauen, Brian Clark, Jessica Servais, Joe Bourne, Steve Teti, Kyle Pozan, Simeon Morbey, Arielle Wagner, Stephen Owen, Kristie LaSalle, and Craig Davis, among others.

Lockridge Grindal Nauen was proud to support the Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity’s premier fundraising event, Hard Hat & Black Tie Gala.

The evening was filled with fun, networking, and lots of laughter as guests arrived in their best ‘construction couture’ all in the spirit of supporting Habitat’s mission.
