[Lnc-business] List of events and dates in 2018

[James Lark]

Dear Wes:

     I hope all is well with you and your family.  In a separate message 
I shall send you a Word file containing a list of events and dates that 
may be helpful to you.

     Specifically, I have assembled a list of events and dates in 2018 
to which the LP may wish to draw attention; I have prepared such lists 
for the past several years.  For example, it may be useful for LPHQ to 
issue press releases concerning some of these events and dates; it may 
also be useful for state affiliates to conduct outreach efforts on or 
about some of these dates.  I have provided supplemental information 
regarding some of these events/dates.

     Some of the events and dates listed are included because I know 
something about them, or because I suspect they will be of interest to 
people sympathetic to the libertarian perspective.  Some events and 
dates are included at the suggestion (or request) of LP colleagues.  
Inclusion of an event does not imply that I believe it is particularly 
important or that the LP should commemorate it in some manner.  
Similarly, omission of an event from the list does not imply I believe 
it is unimportant or that we should not commemorate it in some manner.

     While I endeavored to check the accuracy of the listings, in some 
cases I did so using secondary sources (e.g., Wikipedia). Hence, before 
using information from this list, I encourage you to conduct research to 
ascertain whether the information is indeed correct.  (Some events sent 
to me by Libertarian colleagues evidently did not occur on the dates 
provided.)

     As usual, I shall provide the document to my LNC colleagues. Since 
I do not have access to the State Chairs' list, I would appreciate it if 
you would send the document to that list.  I hope those receiving the 
document will review the information and provide suggestions concerning 
additional events and dates, as well as any corrections that should be 
made.

     As always, thanks for your work for liberty.  Best wishes to you 
and the family for a great 2018.

     Take care,
     Jim
