On Friday, September 30, and Saturday, October 1; AM 560 WIND and ChampionNews.net are proud to bring together Tea Party activists, conservatives, and like-minded citizens from around the Midwest for a unique event that will seek to educate, inspire, and activate. We’re calling it TeaCon 2011, and we’ll be partnering with Tea Party groups from Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan, Iowa, Minnesota, and Missouri to equip and motivate activists and voters for the upcoming election season.   TeaCon 2011 will be held at the Renaissance Schaumburg Hotel & Convention Center and will kick-off Friday evening with a welcome reception.  Saturday will feature a breakfast general session, followed by three hours of break-out sessions, focused on specific topics and issues, to train and educate attendees.

There will then be a lunch general session, followed by our Presidential candidates forum. We are inviting all of the declared GOP presidential candidates to appear in 20-minute increments with our moderator to answer questions and talk about their respective campaigns. At the conclusion, we’ll be conducting a straw poll.
 
The event will be capped off by a special dinner, with featured speaker, Glenn Beck. At the dinner, we’ll be announcing the results of our straw poll, and Glenn will address the attendees.  Glenn will offer up his vision for how they should approach the 2012 election cycle.

A Limited Number of Tickets for TeaCon (conference only) WILL BE ON -SALE at the Schaumburg Renaissance beginning at 3pm TODAY, Friday, September 30. Cash or Credit ONLY. The Glenn Beck dinner is SOLD OUT.
