    Keenevention 2015 Day Three Recap

While in Keene, you can: Go Hiking!

Sunset RockThis just in – there are now two hikes scheduled during Keenevention, both led by the NH Liberty Alliance‘s “Activist of the Year”, Keith Carlsen. Hiking is one of several outside-the-hotel activities happening this weekend. On Saturday, after the keynote speaker, Keith will take you up to “Sunset Rock” on Beech Hill. This hike is pretty easy and you will enjoy a view of downtown Keene. On Sunday, after the closing speaker, Keith will take you up West Hill. The view isn’t as nice as on Beech Hill/Sunset Rock, but Keith says you will feel this hike in your legs. Keith will meet prospective hikers at the hotel after the keynote speeches. The hikes will be cancelled if it rains.

Here are several other things you can do outside-the-hotel while in Keene for Keenevention – no Keenevention ticket necessary. Though, if you’d like to attend Keenevention, tickets for the whole weekend are just $50 until 10/31 and $60 at the door (or you can buy a day pass for $25).

While in Keene, you can: Visit Rich Paul!

Rich PaulWere he not in a jail cell, cannabis liberation activist Rich Paul would certainly have a featured speaking role at Keenevention 2013. However, he would love it if Keenevention came to him, so consider this something for your to-do list while in Keene:

You can easily visit Rich Paul at the Cheshire “House of Corrections” or as some activists call it, the “Keene Spiritual Retreat“. Unlike many jails, the Keene jail allows visiting every day for several hours per day. You do need to plan your visit at least a day in advance and you can do that via this online system. Sign yourself up and bring friends – you’ll get 30 minutes with Rich. If you don’t already know him, go anyway! He’d appreciate the company and is always entertaining to talk to.

Menu Announced for VIP Dinner & Lunch at Mandrik’s

MandrikIf you’ve ever eaten at the Porcupine Freedom Festival, then you probably know Mandrik. He’s also famous for his homemade baklava, which you can order online anytime. We’re fortunate to have him based in Keene. He’s a talented, fun, and bitcoin-friendly personal chef. If you are a VIP ticket holder to Keenevention, you’ll be a guest in Mandrik’s home for either lunch or dinner on Saturday!

He has put together the following menu for your dining pleasure and fellowship with new and old friends:

  • Grilled Chicken Salad – Mixed greens, orange & yellow peppers, and avocado, tossed with a homemade olive oil & lime dressing. Served with grilled, seasoned chicken strips on top.
  • Bacon and Spinach Sweet Potato Mash
  • Dessert: George’s Famous Baklava served with cinnamon-sprinkled vanilla ice cream. (Gluten free cookie with vanilla coconut milk ice cream available by request.)

Still haven’t ordered your tickets for Keenevention? To get access to either the VIP lunch or dinner at Mandrik’s, you can get your VIP tickets here for $100 for the entire weekend.

Have you wanted to go “Robin Hooding”? Do it during the Keenevention!

BizCard_FrontYou’ve seen the videos. Now you can join up with Robin Hood and the Merry Men and Women and help rescue the motorists of Keene from the King’s men and their ransom!

Friday and Saturday shifts will be available all day for you to plug in to the most successful form of activism and outreach in Keene to date. Hit the streets with a roll of coins and cards and do some good for the community! As a bonus, you get to have fun as you deny the local government gang the hard-earned dollars of the good people of Keene by preventing parking tickets from being issued! You’ll also experience the value of being able to do liberty activism in groups – the reason why the Free State Project is the key to liberty in our lifetime.

This is just one of the activities that will be happening outside the hotel – stay tuned here to the Keenevention blog, the facebook page, or the facebook event for continued announcements and news.

You can get your tickets to Keenevention now for the earlybird price of just $35 for the whole weekend.
