Milford Drinking Liberally Chapter

 The Milford Chapter of Drinking Liberally (DL) started in 2007. It is an offshoot of the national group called Living Liberally. We are a non-partisan progressive group who enjoy talking politics and issues with like-minded people.

 The group is very informal, there is no agenda and conversations are free flowing. There are times when someone wants the floor to make an announcement or share some information to the whole group. During election years, we have candidates as guests. As an entity Drinking Liberally doesn’t endorse candidates or issues, though DL will post and disseminate information.

 

We meet the second and fourth Wednesday of the month at the Turtle Tavern, 72 Main St. Milford from 6:30.
