Chairperson Christine Eichler welcomed those attending and thanked Donna Reihl, Kent Smedley and the Community College of Baltimore County for welcoming us to their new facility in Hunt V alley and for the complimentary breakfast.

Christine Eichler turned the roundtable over to Christine Walters of member FiveL Company for a unique version of “Employment Law Jeopardy: The Latest News in Managing Disability and Leave Issues”. In a PowerPoint presentation, four topics; ADA; FMLA; USERRA & Title VII; and Maryland & Other Leave Issues were displayed with five questions under each topic shown as a number 1 through 5. Volunteers called for a topic and a number. Christine read the question indicated by the number under the topic and the first person with the correct answer won a prize. Kent Smedley was responsible for declaring who raised their hand first and Donna Reihl dispensed the prizes. After the correct answer, Christine discussed the law or regulations behind the answer. The game was exciting, fast and very interesting. Congratulations to Christine for such a creative presentation.
