JAX.....New Free Republic Chapter in Jacksonville, Florida

I'm trying to get a JAX chapter started, but haven't received much interests as of yet. I'm hoping by putting up a thread, more people might see my plan. If anyone lives in the Jacksonville, Florida or south Georgia area and would like to be a part of a new chapter of FReepers, please consider it. It will be lots of fun and I feel it's important to organize ourselves. FReepmail me with your email address so we can create a loop for communication purposes.

I'm mostly interested in supporting our troops in the area, but there will be other opportunities to make our presence known as well. I believe Jeb Bush will be here for a debate on the 27th. (Is that correct Dutchgirl)?

New Chapter Bump!

Spookbrat - Best wishes from Puget Sound Chapter, Washington. If you have any specific questions, just send me a FReepmail. :)

You're starting out just fine! Get a central list of 5-10 people, meet, talk, FReep and post about your exploits! If you build it, they will come!

BTW - Don't worry about not having any structure. Conservatives in general and FReepes in particular rebel at structure, so keep it loose and you will succeed!

Hey I have an idea.. why don't you make it a 4th Congresional District, and I will join !!..

FReegards,

David

[SpookBrat]

It looks like 5 is all we will have to start with. I had the same ideaa. Start small and word would get out. I'm looking forward to getting started.

[SpookBrat]

How far are you from us? 2 hours? You can still join. 2 hours ain't nothing. ROFL!

[SpookBrat]

So when are you coming?

[Freedom2specul8]

Bump from missouri!

[SpookBrat]

How do I know you are from Missouri? You'll have to show me, since you are from the show me state. ROFL! just kidding.

[Scuttlebutt]

Bump for those in the JAX area.

[davidosborne]

Which Congressional District are you in?

[davidosborne]

I believe Duval County is mostly 4th, and a little 3rd.. and a little 7th... the map I have is somewhat hard to read... I need to get a better map..

I would be happy to join your 4th District/Jax Chapter..

FReegards,
David

Help me, please. :) LOL I have no idea what I'm doing.

Nor did any of us when we began to form Chapters. You have a wonderful attitude and your enthusiasm will slowly become contagious. Just don't give up and call on us if you need help.

[SpookBrat]

I'm going to get my act together tomorrow and compile all the names in the area I received. I hope we can set a dinner date soon. Thanks for all the well wishes and support. It means a lot to us.

Greetings from the Westside! Count me in for a Jacksonville Freep! I tried to get something going, but lost momentum...

[SpookBrat]

We'll get this rolling. How are you doing by the way?

[Frances_Marion]

Hi, I live in Jax, and this sounds like a great idea to me. I tried to organize a small Freep of Reno's little visit to Riverside a few months ago, but there just wasn't enough time to bring it all together. I'm sure next time a freeping occasion presents itself, we'll all be prepared.
