Upcoming Events

On Tuesday, December 12 2023, 4:30 PM - 12:00 PM, Holiday Toy Drive hosted by IOC, MIPLA, & OCBA

Happy Holiday Season!

Please join us for a Holiday Toy Drive jointly hosted by the MI IP Inn of Court (IOC), MI IP Law Association (MIPLA), and the Oakland County Bar Association (OCBA)!  We have done similar events in prior years and the turnout has been fantastic.  This is a great opportunity to network with colleagues while giving back to our community.

The toy drive will take place on December 12th at 4:30 PM at Fillmore 13 Brewery (7 North Saginaw Street, Pontiac, Michigan 48342; https://fillmore13brewery.com/).

A free parking lot is located just around the corner from the building at the corner of Wayne and Lawrence. Paid street parking may also be available on Saginaw Street.

Heavy appetizers and a cash bar will be available. Please note that while 4:30 PM is listed as the start time, guests may arrive any time from 4:30 PM – 7:30 PM, and stay as long as they like. Guests may also enjoy a casual dress code (or even a festive dress code) for this event.

We kindly ask that all guests bring a toy as a contribution (STEM-based toys if possible). For convenience, we have also provided a shared Amazon shopping list if you wish to order one or more items online and have them shipped directly to the IOC for donation. All toys will be donated to the Salvation Army Pontiac Community Center. The link to the Amazon List is below:
