Rotary Club Economic Breakfast

FISCAL STATE OF
ILLINOIS: FITNESS OR FOLLY?

Lake Forest-Lake Bluff Rotary Club
to host fundraising breakfast with panel of expert speakers

Despite the Illinois
Legislature’s recent passage of a compromise pension bill, many say the state’s
financial condition is still broken. Can it be fixed, and what would it take?

These questions will be
addressed by a panel of experts at the 15th
Economic Breakfast sponsored by the Lake Forest-Lake Bluff Rotary Club at 7:15 a.m. on Wednesday, March 5, 2014. 

The location is the Lake Forest Club, 554 Westmoreland Road, Lake Forest. The
breakfast will be an important fundraising event for the service organization
as well as an informative session for local business owners, professionals, and
community leaders.

Panelists will include:

• Richard
  F. Dye, Institute of Government and Public Affairs, University of Illinois
• Carol
  Portman, President, Taxpayers’ Federation of Illinois
• Douglas L. Whitley, President and CEO, Illinois Chamber of Commerce

The moderator will be Julian Crews of WGN News.

Tickets are $60 each or $425
