Friday has a couple optional workshops and an evening welcome reception. The conference goes into full force on Saturday July 24.

Learn how you can tap into your skills to help animals. Each day, there are workshops based around the following tracks: Building Skills, Learning the Issues, Public Policy, and Reaching Out. You can choose the one that is most fitting for what you want to learn or accomplish in your own life. Monday is lobby day, when you can join with others to ask your elected officials to pass laws that help, not hurt, animals.

Be sure to pick up the special limited coupon from Cafe Green, DC’s only all-vegan, full-service restaurant, that will be available at Compassion Over Killing’s exhibit table in the Exhibitor’s Hall.

The conference is at the Washington Marriott Wardman Park. Of course, all the food served is vegan.

You can still register – go to www.takingactionforanimals.org ($165 for full conference starting with the welcome reception tonight, or $115 for just one day).

OTHER INFO

We would love to hear from you suggestions for future events, how we can make the event better, what you like, what you don’t like, tell us how much you love us, anything! LET US KNOW!

About DC Vegan Drinks:

DC Vegan Drinks is a monthly offline social networking event for people interested in sharing veganism and advocating for animal rights. Our mission is to bring together people from all walks of life (lawyers, students, small business owners, etc…) to build a stronger community and promote the sharing of resources. A lot of people build these networks online but never really connect socially, this is where our shin-dig falls in. There is no requirement except for an interest in veganism, animal rights, and to have a little after-work fun.

What you need to do:

* Be friendly, even to any non-vegans that may come.
* Talk about what you do in your free time, what business or organization you work for, who makes the best vegan cookie, your blog, etc…
* Oh, most importantly, have a drink and relax with some fellow vegans.

What to bring:

* Business Cards (if you want to share).
* If you don’t have business cards–flyers or pamphlets are cool too. Please remember to keep all distributions related to animal welfare/animal rights/veganism/etc.
* Cash for tips for your friendly bartenders.

Other info: There is NO dress code, come how you feel. It’s FREE, but drinks are NOT. Bring CASH to tip your bartenders. Some of the places we visit are 21 and over so make sure you check above to see if this months is.
