For those who want a deeper Libertarian experience consider attending an LP convention next year. There you will meet others like yourself who know that people must be master to the state and that our Constitution is the bedrock for protecting our liberties.

In line with federal requirements, the Ventura County Board of Education issued a Constitution Week Proclamation. A 2004 amendment mandates that all publicly funded educational institutions and all federal agencies  provide educational programming on the history of the American Constitution on that day

Acknowledge our roots by attending a Constitution Day brunch on Sunday September 17th at 11:00 AM. Join us at Fusion Grill, 2024 East Avenida de los Arboles, Thousand Oaks, CA. Enjoy food, fun and constitution trivia. We will be in the semi-private room to the right of the entrance.  Why?  Because it’s important to celebrate the birthday of the Constitution of the United States with liberty-loving friends!!! All are welcome.

Calling all Libertarians! We need good Libertarian Candidates to run for office. See vacancies and deadlines below. If you’re seriously considering a run for office, we would like to speak with you!

Landowners and homeowners near planned Wildlife Corridors will want to meet to fight back against this erosion of property rights. VC CoLab will host and Supervisor Peter Foy will speak Wednesday July 26 from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM at Underwood Family Farms, 3370 Sunset Valley Road in Moorpark in the pony paddock area. Proposed regulations target limits on new construction, land use, fencing, and lighting. The LPVC supports CoLab in their efforts to confront this project being promoted by our county and the National Park Service

If you are affected by the county’s vast Wildlife Corridor project you will want to attend the quarterly business meeting on Thursday July 20 at 6:30 PM at Marie Callender’s in Camarillo, 185 E. Daily Drive. Lynn Jensen of VC CoLAB (Ventura County Coalition of Labor, Agriculture and Business) will speak from a property owner’s point of view and discuss its effect on property rights and increased regulations. For more information go to http://vcrma.org/planning/plans/Habitat-Connectivity-Wildlife-Movement-Corridors.html. (If you click on the powerpoint presentation and scroll down you will see a map of these corridors.)

here are many local races going on in your area in the next year or two years. All too often local races are not contested or are non-partisan and that gives us special opportunities for advancing the Libertarian Party. If you are contemplating a 2018 run, now is the time to lay the foundation. Some states even require that candidates who run in 2018 file paperwork in 2017. So, don’t delay.

The Ventura County Star opines that recalls are only justified in cases like the city of Bell. Just like their opposition to Measure M, The Star’s opinion is once again out-of-step with the sensibilities of voters and seemingly oblivious to Oxnard’s history.

Meet for July’s Liberty and Libations social under the oaks in Topanga Canyon on Saturday July 8. We will bring our own picnics and meet at 1:45 PM to converse with socially tolerant and fiscally responsible-minded friends just before the 3:30 performance, an adaptation of George Orwell’s Animal Farm.  Contact the Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum’s Box Office to reserve your seats, ranging in price from $15 (Veterans, teachers, students, etc.) to $38. This is an outdoor theater, so come prepared with sweaters and seat cushions.
