NEXT MEETUP
Thursday August 26, 7pm
Takes 10 Seconds and Makes a Big Difference
By Josh Lange
Hopefully everyone here is familiar with Meetup.com and is aware that we host dozens of Meetups across Illinois on the fourth Thursday of every month.
This is a notice that voting has begun for the August 26th Meetup, so head on over to the Kerry Meetup Page and click on the venue nearest you.
Important: We are trying to condense the Meetups to a few key venues, so if you can vote for Cabo Bar & Grill if you're on the North Side and the Negro League Cafe if you're on the South Side, it would really help us out.
Our regular spots are Goose Island, Ann Sather, and the Charleston Bar, so if you aren't near any of those but are somewhat near Cabo or the Negro League Cafe, please vote for them.
If you have any questions, email me. Thanks!

Meetup
Committee Needs Your Help!
Appeal from Meetup Committee Chair, Josh
Lange:
Hey everyone, this is Josh Lange, the Meetup Chairman for the Chicago area. This post is for two kinds of people: 1) those who can help Meetup with a small, but vital donation 2) those who want to help with Meetup with their time...
The
next Meetup is
Thursday, June 26 at 7pm
Report from Josh on the May 27th Meetup:
The Goose Island Brew Pub Meetup had a record turnout of over 100 people and raised over six hundred dollars last night. Brendan Goff hosted the packed room, along with representatives from the Obama and Cegelis camps.
To ensure a better host-to-attendee ratio for June, we are asking anyone who would consider hosting a Meetup in their neighborhood to email Meetup Chairman Josh Lange (bottlroktt@yahoo.com) with your name, phone number, and neighborhood. Let's get out the Meetup in June and keep the momentum going!
Josh Lange is Meetup Chair at ChicagolandForKerry.
