More than 70 members of the Greater Rochester Association for Women Attorneys gathered on Dec. 15 at the American Association of University Women mansion on East Avenue.

“We had a great mix of young attorneys and long-time GRAWA members,” GRAWA President Kari Smoker said. “There was lots of talking and laughter — a sure sign of a successful party.”

Attendance was free to members, but donations were collected to contribute to a full scholarship for a female student’s participation in the Young Entrepreneurs Academy — a local program providing experience-based entrepreneurship opportunities, allowing young people to transform ideas into real businesses.
