			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looking to meet and network with liberty-advocates in the Denver area? Wish you had others to discuss the recent S &amp; P downgrade with, other than on Facebook threads? Then join us Wednesday, August 17 for Liberty on the Rocks happy hour! Anyone is welcome and encouraged to attend.</p>
<p><strong>Where: Choppers Sports Grill (back room) | 80 S. Madison Street, Denver<br />
When: 6-9 PM on Wednesday, August 17</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=231704443538546">RSVP on Facebook!</a></p>
<p><strong>Special Guest Jude Sandvall to briefly discuss: </strong><em><strong>The Danger TIF (Tax-increment financing) Poses to Taxpayers</strong></em></p>
<p>Mr. Sandvall is a local businessman and entrepreneur who has spent time researching TIF, and consequently <span style="display: inline;">has plenty to say about it as it relates to the new Aurora Economic Stimulus Plan (also known as the Gaylord Entertainment Deal). But it&#8217;s not just a danger to the people of Aurora, it&#8217;s something we must all be concerned about as it may be coming to a city near us! Read the below article by Randle O&#8217;Toole of CATO to get a better idea of the topic. It&#8217;s important, because it can easily affect YOU! So be sure to join us for this important discussion by Mr. Sandvall, which will be followed by Q &amp; A and group discussion.</span></p>
<p><a href=" http://denver.libertyonthe​rocks.org/files/2011/08/TI​F-Policy-Analysis.pdf">Crony Capitalism &amp; Social Engineering: The Case Against TIF</a></p>
<p><strong>Mock Debate: </strong><em><strong>Should the government play a role in creating jobs and stimulating the economy?</strong></em></p>
<p>Mr. Sandvall will join us early for our mock debate! So be sure to get to Choppers by 6:00 to hear Jude debate a &#8220;progressive&#8221; (quotations indicate they are just pretending!) on whether or not government should play a role in creating jobs. You can expect to walk away with some good talking points, and are also encouraged to share your own thoughts after the 15 minute debate.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="center">You are invited to attend John Michael Chambers&#8217; presentation,</p>
<p align="center"><strong>“The <em>True </em></strong><strong>State of the Economy… Solutions For an Escalating Crisis”</strong></p>
<p align="center">Hosted by the Evergreen Tea Party &amp; Liberty On The Rocks</p>
<p><strong>When: Monday, </strong><strong>June 13, 6:30-8:30 p.m. (pre-meeting &#8220;Beer Summit&#8221; @ 5 p.m.)</strong><br />
<strong>Where: Evergreen Country Day School | 1093 Swede Gulch Rd, Evergreen, CO </strong><br />
<strong>What: Discussing Solutions for an Escalating Economic Crisis </strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=149445341791255">RSVP on Facebook</a></strong></p>
<p><strong>We are not in an &#8220;economic recovery&#8221;.</strong> In fact we are trillions upon trillions of dollars in debt with increased unemployment approaching the great depression levels. The economies, global financial systems and currencies around the world are collapsing. The U.S. Dollar is on life support. Something must be done. Something can be done! Our personal freedom is tied to our economic freedom.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>So says John Michael Chambers, Founder of the Save America Foundation, a not for profit 501(c)(4). He is the Executive Director of the Economic Advisory Council, the founder of JMC Productions and the Asset Preservation Institute. John is an entrepreneur, author, songwriter, public speaker; and producer and host for the radio program “Freedom&#8230;it’s up to U.S.”</p>
<p><strong>In Washington DC, </strong>John attended meetings held by members of Congress on Social Security Reform, Tax Reform and Homeland Security. Acknowledging his business leadership, entrepreneurial spirit and contributions made to the growth of local and national economies, he was twice awarded the Businessman of the Year Award for the state of Colorado by the Presidential Business Advisory Council of Washington DC in 2004 &amp; 2005.</p>
<p><strong>Earlier this year, </strong>John organized and hosted the three day, <strong><a href="http://saveamericaconvention.com/">Save America Convention</a></strong> in Tampa. Speakers at the event included Judge Andrew Napolitano, Author G Edward Griffin, (Creature From Jeckyl Island), Rep. Tom Tancredo, (CO.), Stewart Rhodes, (Oathkeepers), Frantz Kebreau, Gov. Gary Johnson, (NM), Sheriff Richard Mack (AZ), Brandon Smith, (Neithercorp Press &amp; Alt-Market), and Joe Farah of World Net Daily, to name a few.</p>
<p><strong>Arrive early</strong> The Evergreen Tea Party hosts a pre-meeting &#8220;Beer Summit&#8221;, or &#8220;High Tea&#8221; hour at the nearby Smugglers Tavern (29017 Hotel Way in Evergreen). Join us from 5-6 p.m. before the event for food, drinks and great conversation (No Host Bar)! Also, be sure to get to Evergreen Country Day School by 6:15 p.m.for cookies &amp; bottled water, and to ensure you do not miss a second of the presentation!<strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Duration: </strong>90 minutes with additional Q/A afterwards</p>
