Patterson Thuente IP attorney David Cleveland is in Europe participating in a unique event to raise resources for the people of Nepal. David is cycling up the Pyrenees mountains in an effort to support Classrooms In The Clouds, a UK non-profit that builds earthquake-resistant schools in Nepal, sponsors women teachers, and is particularly focused on increasing participation and literacy rates for school age Nepalese girls in rural areas.

With a team comprised of riders and spotters from across Europe, the journey will see David traverse 12 summits and over 9,000 meters (taller than Mount Everest) in the Catalan Pyrenees!

Our offices are closed today as we celebrate the emancipation of Black Americans from slavery. Juneteenth is a celebration of the freedom of more than 250,000 enslaved Black people in the state of Texas -- more than two years after President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation.

Texas became the first state to make Juneteenth an official holiday in 1979. The U.S. Congress established Juneteenth as an official holiday in 2021 and President Biden signed it into law on June 17 of the same year, making it the first federal holiday since MLK Day in 1983.
