Come join us for March's Lake County Tweetup! This time we're meeting up at Gino's East in Deerfield. We're expecting this event to be the largetst to date! Each ticket will include a drink and assorted appetizers.

Who’s invited?
Anyone is welcome. Don't let the word “Tweetup” frighten you. It’s a gathering of Twitter users, or "Tweeps", that get together. You don’t have to be on Twitter, or even know what Twitter is, but you will get to meet local Lake County people, have a good time and most likely want to sign up for a Twitter account by the time you leave!

Where’s it at?
Gino's East Deerfield (@GinosEastDfld) is located at 1445 Lake Cook Road, Deerfield, IL  60015. Located in the atrium of the Embassy Suites. (Techincally, we'll be in Cook County, hoping to make it easier for our city friends to join us!)

How much does it cost?
$10 in advance and $15 at the door. Price includes one drink and appetizers.
