room which was preset as a conference table with about 20 chairs around it –
plus added few chairs around the perimeter – and we think it will work out just
fine as does the hotel. It is larger than our basement room which we recently
hosted several large groups and classes in (excess of 20 folks). We thought
perhaps this room that the hotel offered us might be more comfortable for you
all (they gave it to us free of charge) but we can leave it up to the chair to
decide what would be best for the group - if a room is needed Sun.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

the hotel has smaller tables (borrowed from the restaurant?), maybe that would
add 5 or 7 to the capacity of the Duke Room. That might give us enough
room to get up and go to the bathroom without asking 5 people to stand up to
make enough room to get by them.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><font size=3 color=black

members of the Libertarian National Committee to <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City
w:st="on">Alexandria</st1:City></st1:place> this weekend.<br>
<br>
In addition to the official agenda, here are a few suggestions for things to do
before and after the official meeting.<br>
<br>
For those of you arriving early enough on Friday, after checking into the
hotel, you are welcome to come by the LPHQ to hang out, discuss, brainstorm,
gossip, or whatever. I'll be here as well as other staff members probably until
at least 7:30 PM. (See suggestion below about bringing beer or wine.)<br>
<br>
Below are a few places to consider eating that are very close by to your hotel
and LP headquarters, and of course are in walking distance.<br>
<br>
<b><span style='font-weight:bold'>Table Talk Restaurant </span></b>(just across
the street from the hotel and to the left) is a greasy spoon-style restaurant
with a great breakfast, and sandwiches and things for lunch. <u>It closes a 3PM</u>.
<br>
<b><span style='font-weight:bold'>La Porta's </span></b>(next door to the
hotel) is more upscale and open for lunch and dinner. At 3 PM, happy hour
starts, with half-priced bar menu items like hamburgers.<br>
<b><span style='font-weight:bold'>Whole Foods </span></b>and <b><span
style='font-weight:bold'>Subway </span></b>Sandwiches is just down the street
from the hotel.<br>
<br>
Regardless of where you might eat Friday, I suggest walking over to Whole
Foods, picking up a 6-pack of beer or a bottle of wine, and then bringing it
over the LP Headquarters (at 1444 Duke St.) to share with staff and any other
guests that are here Friday afternoon and early evening. Left overs can be
contributed to the Saturday night building headquarters anniversary
celebration.<br>
<br>
Tim Hagan has been working to find people to go to a Friday night <b><span
style='font-weight:bold'>baseball game </span></b>with him. Contact Tim if you
are interested in that.<br>
<br>
Saturday will be a full day of the LNC meeting, followed by the <a
href="http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/lphq-anniversary-party-on-july-18-see-video-from-last-year">LPHQ
anniversary celebration</a>. <br>
<br>
On Sunday, depending on when things wrap up, if somebody has suggestions on
group activities, feel free to propose them.<br>
<br>
Last year, several of us wandered over to the historic <st1:Street w:st="on"><st1:address
w:st="on">King Street</st1:address></st1:Street>, just a few blocks away, from
the office, which is loaded with bars, restaurants, and shops.<br>
<br>
On Sunday, if there's enough interest, you might get a group together to visit
the DC monuments, some of the Smithsonian museums in DC, or Mount Vernon which
is just about 12 miles away (maybe a $30 cab ride split between whoever goes).
While I enjoyed visiting <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:State w:st="on">Mount Vernon</st1:State></st1:place>
recently, it was quite hot the day I visited, so be prepared to check the
weather and to be exposed to significant heat and sun. <br>
<br>
We'll see you soon!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<br>
P.S. Rumor has it we secured meeting space at the hotel for Sunday. It's a
smaller room than the Saturday room, but bigger than the LPHQ basement.<br>
P.P.S. Rumor has it the proposed new "Torch Eagle" logo is leading in
the survey responses received so far. Tell your friends to FedEx or fax their
response forms and contributions IMMEDIATELY if they still want to affect the
results before the LNC meets. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
