The 50-Bar Strategy
Ladies and Gentleman -
The month of May is a big one for Drinking Liberally and the larger Living Liberally network. Our flagship chapter turns 5 years old on May 29th. Leading up to it, we will hit 250 chapters for the first time -- and, more excitingly, we will have chapters in all 50 states.
How's that for a "50 State Strategy," Governor Dean?
We're celebrating in May and we want you to celebrate with us.
We're kicking off the festivities on May 10th in New York City with our 2nd Annual Living Liberally Celebration & Fundraiser. Last year's event raised the revenue that hired our first fulltime staff enabling us to increase our reach, expand the Eating, Screening, Laughing, Reading, Crafting Liberally networks, grow our online presence and become a better partner to the progressive movement.
This year, we would love you to join us as we honor Working Assets / CREDO and their political director Becky Bond, who have been critically supportive of progressive infrastructure, tireless in defense of our Constitution, and through their business have helped us "Live Liberally" every day.
Please join us, support our national expansion and honor Becky and CREDO -- if you can't make it, you can still donate and subsidize a ticket for a local activist who can't afford the full price.
If giving money's not your thing, then consider helping us promote the Living Liberally network with a congratulatory blogad on your site. Similar to the image you see in this post, we have art that allows you to toast the 5 Years / 50 States / 250 Chapters our network will reach by month's end.
We'll also be launching two new projects this month: one is The Liberal Card, an affinity card that promotes liberal pride, liberal community...and liberal discounts. More on that soon.
And secondly, we'll launch our new integrated Living Liberally website. Stay tuned!
Lastly, all of this will build toward an Anniversary Drinking Liberally on May 29th -- and we hope special gatherings around the country so we can all promote democracy one pint at a time.
Thank you for being part of this growing network. We hope you'll help celebrate our past 5 years and support our next 5 -- keep drinking liberally!
