[Lnc-business] March LNC meeting at Students For Liberty? #BeFree at LibertyCon 2018

[Wes Benedict]

Way down below is an email from Students For Liberty (SFL) announcing 
their conference.

Students For Liberty puts on a great conference annually in Washington, 
D.C.. It's not just for students--many others attend and organizations 
including the LNC, Cato, Reason, Atlas Network, Koch, Institute for 
Justice, and many other organizations have booths participate in 
sessions. Attendance in recent years averages probably double a national 
LP convention. The conferences run from Friday through Sunday, with most 
of the action being on Friday afternoon and Saturday, with Sunday ending 
around lunch or at least attendance dropping off significantly by then.

Early Bird Registration is only $100. That's a lot more affordable than 
FreedomFest, where the LNC has met several times in recent years. Also, 
I think the SFL speakers and themes are more libertarian focused than 
FreedomFest, and also focuses more on philosophy and activism, whereas 
FreedomFest has a significant focus on investing. (Investment seminars 
bore me cause I'm a closed-minded old-school low-cost indexed fund 
investor).

In any case, if the LNC is interested, I think you could hold an LNC 
meeting either at the same hotel, or a nearby hotel. When we've met in 
Las Vegas at FreedomFest, we've had one day all day Sunday meetings, 
which could work at the SFL event.

An alternative would be to meet Saturday from 3 PM to 8 PM, and Sunday 
from 8 AM to 2 PM. This could be an especially efficient option for 
those uninterested in the conference but able to fly in Saturday morning 
in time for the 3 PM start, and depart Sunday afternoon resulting in 
just one hotel night. And staff wouldn't need to pay for flights since 
we'd be in D.C.

If the LNC is interested in having a meeting in conjunction with the SFL 
conference, we can research some options for the LNC to consider at the 
August St. Louis meeting.

I think I'm like 0 for 8 when it comes to the LNC adopting my 
suggestions for locations for LNC meetings, so, obviously, no need to 
feel like I'm pressuring anyone and I'll not feel offended if the LNC 
chooses other dates and locations.

Below are two images from our 2017 booth at the conference earlier this 
year. And again, the email announcing the conference is down below.
