Greetings 2A ADVOCATES,

*** NEW TOWNHALL MEETING LOCATION ANNOUNCEMENT ***
As many of you found out last month, the Golden Corral Restaurant in Algonquin abruptly and permanently closed the night before our “chapter” townhall meeting last month. Gat Guns, friends to our “chapter” and supporters of the ISRA, has graciously agreed to host our meetings at its facility at 970 Dundee Ave (IL Rte. 25), East Dundee, IL 60118 until further notice.

*** GAT GUNS WELCOMES THE NORTHWEST SUBURBAN TOWNHALL

MEETINGS… AND MORE ***

Starting June 16, 2026, the NW Suburban Townhall Meetings scheduled on the third Tuesday of each month will take place at Gat Guns in the second floor east conference room. Doors will open at 5:30 for attendees to drop their gear (if appliable) and to commence the “social hour.” The formal meeting presentation will commence at 7:00 pm and run till 8:00 (or thereafter on occasion).

Initially, there will be an admission fee of $20.00 to cover catering costs. Subsequently, when we have a better handle on attendance levels and catering costs, we may adjust this fee.
- Please bring a $20 bill or two $10 dollar bills to pay the fee so we do not have to mess around making change.
- To keep our costs down, please bring a soft drink or water, else you can purchase those from Gat Guns’ vending machines on the first floor.
- Any excess fees collected over catering costs will be donated to the ISRA.
If occasions arise when our regular meeting date conflicts with a major event at Gat Guns, ISRA members may attend the Gat Guns event, paying Gat Guns’ admission fee when applicable.

*** FEATURED SPEAKER ANNOUNCEMENT ***
A separate “Featured Speaker” announcement will circulate separately for the June 16, 2026 NW Suburban
Townhall Meeting. Hope to see you there!
Thank you for your continued support of the ISRA and Illinois gun owners.
Northwest Suburban Townhall Meeting Board

This month’s guest speaker will be Thomas McCullagh, White House Correspondent, owner of The Daily Beltway, and Field Director for the Congressional Republican Organization.

Thomas will discuss the current political landscape, national and Illinois Second Amendment issues, media coverage surrounding gun rights, and why grassroots activism remains critical for Illinois gun owners. He will also provide updates on the ongoing fight against anti-gun legislation and the broader political efforts impacting constitutional freedoms both in Illinois and across the country.

As always, we’ll cover current events, provide updates on PICA litigation and pending legislation in Springfield, and discuss issues directly affecting law-abiding gun owners throughout Illinois.

This is a great opportunity to meet fellow Second Amendment supporters, stay informed, and become more involved in protecting our rights.

Please invite your neighbors and friends to attend, and encourage them to join or support the Illinois State Rifle Association. ISRA has defended Illinois gun owners since 1903, and your involvement helps keep that fight strong.

We teach safety. We stand for freedom. We never back down.
