The Chicago Libertarian Party Meetup Group

 

Welcome fellow members of the Libertarian Party Chicago.  This message is the 1st official notice that the Libertarian Party Chicago is planning on creating 4 new branches of the group.  Earlier, many of you voted on your choice for alternate locations for meeting places that better fit your schedule or would be closer to get to.  That being said, the 4 general locations are: The loop, Bucktown/Wicker Park, Jefferson Park/Edison Park, and Edgewater/Rogers Park.

What we are looking for are members to establish these 4 new branch groups to expand the presence of the Libertarian Party of Chicago.  That being said, we need volunteers to fill the following positions for each of the  branches.  Once the group is established, you can hold elections to make changes as you see fit.

1.       President:  to run meetings, help establish the new location and make quarterly contact with main Libertarian Party of Chicago group.

2.      Fundraiser:  Raise funds to help run the group.  We ask that each of the groups consider giving a portion of their funds raised to the main Chicago Libertarian group on a quarterly basis. The amount to be determined by the members of the new group, when funds become available.

3.      Treasurer:  Safe-keeps the funds collected.

4.      Membership:  To increase the number of members that join the LP Chicago and attend the meetings of the new location/group.

5.      Web designer:  Someone who can create and update the new group’s website that will be based off the template of the Chicago Libertarian web page; though personal touches/changes are recommended.

 

Please reply to this post to indicating which new location you would be interested in becoming an officer for.  I will gather up all posts and messages and get people in touch with each other that have indicated they want to form the branch in the same area.  Please reply by 4/23/2011

 

Thanks for your participation,

The Chicago Libertarian Party Meetup Group

This is a special meetup announcement that is asking for every member to indicate (in their RSVP) what location they live in. We are only asking for general areas and not for addresses. There will be 8 choices to choose from. In your RSVP, please indicate the number first, which will represent the area most convenient for you to attend future meetings and then any other comments you might have.

***Please note that this is not to replace the location of the current monthly business meetings. Rather, this is designed to help the group determine if there is a desire for satellite Libertarian of Chicago groups that would feed into the main group; more of a hub and spoke system.

Here are your choices. Please choose the one that best suits your needs. A follow up meeting announcement will be sent when totals are tallied shortly after February 1st.

1. Lakeview/Lincoln Park/Lincoln Square area
2. Edison Park/Jefferson Park area
3. Rogers Park/Edgewater area
4. North or South Austin/Western Chicago
5. Loop
6. Bridgeport area
7. South West Chicago/Midway area
8. South/South East Chicago

We do realize that the ares available may not be perfect, but we need to start somewhere in this research.

The hope is that if we can get enough people to attend satellite meetings, hopefully at least every other month; we can then have one person act as the representative for that group who can attend the main business meetings at least once a quarter for updates about activities and fund raising.

Thanks in advance for your participation. The information we gather will really help the party to expand and offer better choices for our members in the fight for freedom and liberty.

The Libertarian Party of Chicago is once again hosting Michael Badnarik’s class on the US Constitution. Mr. Badnarik was the Libertarian nominee for President in 2004, and is an acclaimed Constitutional scholar and teacher.

The class will be from 8:30 am – 5:00 pm at the Lincoln Restaurant Lincoln Restaurant (4008 North Lincoln Avenue, at the corner of Lincoln, Irving Park and Damen) in Chicago. There is plenty of free parking, and it is not too far from the Irving Park Brown Line stop. It is also where LP Chicago holds its monthly meetings.

If you have already attended Michael’s class, consider coming back for a refresher – you already know how interesting it is. If you have not yet attended Michael’s class, then you are in for a treat. All day on the Constitution might sound like a long time on a dry subject, but I can promise that it is anything but. You will be in for a day that you won’t forget.

Here is the sign-up page for the class. http://www.constituti…
Note that with the course tuition, you will also get a signed copy of Michael’s book, "Good to Be King."

Also note that, immediately following Michael’s class, LP Chicago will be hosting its annual holiday party – details to follow soon.

Again, please put December 11th on your calendar. Michael Badnarik’s class during the day, and then the LP Chicago holiday party in the evening. A full day of Liberty!
