We'll have a small amount of snacks and things. Perhaps one of our LNC members <span style='font-size:13.5pt;color:red'>will <b>cook a pot of chili </b></span>or something for Friday evening or we could order pizza occasionally as wanted. Basically, I'd like to make everyone feel welcome to stay at the office as their primary location Friday, but of course, groups may want to head out to some of the restaurants close by. <o:p></o:p></p><p>On Saturday evening, I'd like to have a more formal "2016 Celebration at LPHQ" complete with lots of catered barbecue, remarks from our chair, and lots of noisy libertarians filling up the place. I'd like to charge $20 for the Saturday evening event to help cover the cost of food and drinks.<o:p></o:p></p><p>Sunday, after the LNC meeting adjourns, I plan to serve as a tour guide for D.C.
