IRE Chicago Meetup Happy Hour

After a brief hiatus, IRE Meetups in Chicago are back!

Bring a colleague to introduce to the Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE) community in Chicago at the next Meetup.com Happy Hour event. We’ll gather at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday April 24, at BlackFinn Ameripub, located at 65 W. Kinzie. This event will have a cash bar with cheap drink prices, but we’ll have a side section of the bar roped off just for us.

Come see old friends, make new ones, network and exchange your favorite tools for investigative reporting. Plus, plot your trip to this year’s annual IRE conference in June in San Francisco. http://ire.org/conferences/ire-2014/ (https://email.tribune.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=74c9a020294b44f7aa12230f10cab98e&URL=http%3a%2f%2fire.org%2fconferences%2fire-2014%2f)
