Free Republic Network Board | 10/29/2002 | FR Network

[FR Network]

Earlier this month, the Free Republic Network held its annual Board meeting. In addition to electing new officers, we have decided to rework our Board and operational structure a bit. The new FRN Board of Directors consists of nine members: Interesting Times (Chairman), Skeet (Executive Director), Diotima, Bob J, MinuteGal, DoughtyOne, Nick Danger, Seeking the Truth and Abner.

We are also forming a new FRN Executive Team to help plan and organize events, design and implement services for FR Chapters, and to work with FRN Strategic partners such as the ACU and the Leadership Institute. Upcoming FRN-hosted events include CPAC 2003 in Washington DC, a Freeps Ahoy cruise to be announced shortly, and our yearly conference next fall. We're also looking for volunteer writers and fundraisers. Naturally, all members of the Executive Team will learn the secret FRN handshake and be given their own decoder ring. If you'd like to help us support conservative activism, drop us a line at frn@freeper.org.

The Free Republic Network organizes, trains and supports conservative activists, and connects other conservative organizations with grassroots groups across the country that share their goals. There are currently 49 local and issue-based Chapters affiliated with the FRN.

I suppose the "barrage" would empty out the telephone booth everybody's meeting in at Losers' Paradise?

[diotima]

(Didn't take long for the perpetually cranky one to sniff this post out, eh?)

[Neets]

Almost an hour..I say that is a record!!! HAHAH.

[FreeTheHostages]

Cool. Congratulations, Intersting Times! May you live in them. (Ha ha -- bet you never heard that joke before.)

Ok, everyone, forgive my ignorance, but what's the ACU? (I'm a bit of a newbie.) Is that like the ACLU but without the "liberal"? We need one of those. The liberals are always threatening to sue. Like our DC Chapter rally last weekend had these guys in green hats that were supposed to be legal observers, but they were leading leftists protestors into our permitted space!! They were actually breaking the law!!! Not the sort of thing the ACLU will ever care about. In terms of support for front-line action, I often wonder, whether there are conservative law firms or lawyers that would help when *our* civil rights were violated.

OK, while I'm asking stupid questions: when and where is CPAC?

Ok, everyone, forgive my ignorance, but what's the ACU?

American Conservative Union
