                    Here's a description of the 2014 event. I'd expect
                    to do something similar,

                    A big difference will be that I think we should do a
                    fundraising pitch at this
                    event to help pay off the mortgage.<br>
                    <br>
                    We're beginning work on LP News and would like to
                    nail this down in the next
                    week if possible.<br>
                    <br>
                    So, please speak up soon if you are in favor or
                    against another Saturday
                    evening reception at LPHQ.<br>
