That’s right–it sold out. So let’s sell out the Welcome Event on Wednesday, August 1st put on by People for the American Way.
Just go over to the right hand corner and click on the ad. That will take you to the RSVP page where you can simply RSVP and pay a low $25 for an event of fun, progressive folks and an open bar for 2 hours. You can pay with a credit card or pay on arrival. You absolutely have to RSVP though since the guest list will be set a couple days early due to said open bar.
The sponsors are a great bunch of folks including many elected progressives, WCPT 850, In These Times and Northside DFA. The host committee includes a lot of the bloggers and online-presence of the area so it should be fun, cheap, and sure to sell out so register now. A bunch of candidates will be there as well from what I’m hearing so it should be a great place to get to know some of the candidates and office holders in a low pressure environment.
Posting will be slow for Wednesday, I’m helping to organize one event at the Convention and I’m swamped with little details and then I’m going to the Cubs game down here.
