• Summer Outing - Features activities, sports, entertainment, great food, and lots of fun!

• Annual Dinner - Formal sit-down dinner with the installation of NHCBA officers, awards, and other recognitions.

• Fall Bench Bar - These special receptions enhance the relationships between judges in New Haven area courts and the practitioners who appear before them.

• Holiday Party - The final event of the year when members gather for holiday cheer!
