What a great conference! Thanks to Fred Flannigan and his son Zach for all their hard work! Thanks to all the speakers who came from near and far (both coasts!) to participate.

If you weren't there, be sure to visit this website for some really great on-the-scene-blogging by Jake and the Bald Chick: http://freedomfolks.com/

Watch for YouTube videos to be posted later. Over the next couple days, there are still a lot of events happening in Waukegan as Illinoisans push to get 287g adopted.
