FFZC October 21st-23rd is destined to be an amazing weekend in Austin, Texas for all those who get excited about liberty. Seriously, it has me on the edge of my seat knowing that it’s less than three weeks away. If you are in the state of Texas and enjoy liberty then you need to be getting ready for one of the most well rounded weekends in liberty history.

The weekend will be kicked off on Friday night at 7 pm when the founding fathers will awake from their graves and convene at the University of Texas Tower and march to the Capitol building. This Founding Fathers Zombie Crawl will be featuring the founders of this country, as well as founders of liberty. You may even see Mises and Hayek show up!

Austin It all continues on Saturday at 9 am as we begin the 2011 Students For Liberty Austin Regional Conference. We will be hearing from great speakers like John Papola (producer of Econstories and the famous Keynes v. Hayek Rap) and Fred Smith (President and Founder of the Competitive Enterprise Institute). We will also be hearing from Adam Kissel of Fire, Dr. Nigel Ashford, and many more! A student panel will also be featured with some of the top liberty activists in the area to discuss best practices for spreading the message of liberty! Register here!

YAL The weekend will end on Sunday with the Young Americans for Liberty Campaign Bootcamp at 10 am. If you are interested in working on a campaign in the upcoming election season then you need to get to this bootcamp. Come hear from some of the best in the industry on best practices to get the voters to the polls. Register here!

If you are going to be in Texas or nearby then you need to get to Austin for this weekend. You will not be disappointed.
