Meeting Lori Lipman Brown

Saturday (2/2/08) many of us awesome VA people gathered to meet Lori Lipman Brown. Lori is incredible, creative, and resourceful!   

The event was hosted by RAFT (Richmond Area Free Thinkers) - RAFT is a chapter of WASH. Members from the Richmond AU (Americans United for Separation of Church and State) and RRNA (Richmond Reason and Naturalism Association) were there as well.

We also had a number of long distance guests from Virginia Freethought Renanisance (RRS Affiliate), Charlottesville Skeptics, and UVA's "Virginia Atheists and Agnostics."  (Thanks you guys for making the trip.  We all *loved* meeting each and every one of you.)

I should say that again - It was really great to meet everyone and hopefully we'll have another joint event soon.

If I missed any groups or links you all are welcome to post them here.

Glad to hear you folks got

Glad to hear you folks got together and saw Lori.  She's great.  I did a little interview with her that would help newbies if they've never heard of her.  I'm getting excited at the outlook for an official rrs subdomain with a site specifically for affiliates, designed with everything they'd need to kick ass, including a faster load time with less ads. 

All affiliates will have the ability to raise their own funds, to use their own sections of the site with their own moderation, and to build pages to fit their needs.  We've got less than a 2 month timeline to make this project happen.  Get excited, you'll be needed to help run your area. 

 

Vote for Democrats to save us all from the anti-American Republican party!
