“ If anyone is considering joining, they should. They will meet some fantastic people. From what I can tell as a new member so far, this is a good group of people who like to get together periodically for fun, to discuss common interests, etc. ”

“ Us LCRers really know how to have a good time. We had a great mix of social fun and political conversation. Half the beach was signing up to be on the database 'cause you looked like you were having so much fun! "Dear Michael, Congratulations on a terrific Cook-out. Between David's culinary talents and you bar-b-que techniques, everything was really fantastic. Anyone who couldn't make it on Sunday missed a fun and beautiful afternoon. Looking forward to our next gey together. We've got a "white party" scheduled at Millenium Park on Sat. Aug 16. Circle your calendars. Details to follow. Jessica" ”
