Frequent commenter Louis G. Atsaves is in the news. The Moraine Township GOP Chair is in the news courtesy a press release it looks like he sent to the News-Sun:

Moraine Township Republicans will hold a candidate appreciation night from 6 to 8 p.m. Feb. 27 in the Hemmingway Banquet Room at Miramar Bistro & Bar, 301 Waukegan Ave., Highwood. The reception is to honor the candidates who appeared on Moraine Township ballots on behalf of the Republican Party. The annual Moraine Township Republican Spartan Award to a Moraine precinct committeeman or precinct captain will be announced. Tickets are $25 per person, which includes hors d'oeuvres, cash bar and valet parking. For reservations contact Louis Atsaves, Moraine Township GOP chairman, louisgatsaves@gmail.com or atsaves@aol.com by Feb. 24. Make checks payable to North Shore Republicans.

Atsaves's fundraiser is beyond the shadow of any doubt for a worthwhile cause and, were it not for a court-ordered confinement to home detention, your LakeCountyEye would be attending.

Happily, your LakeCountyEye does have Internet access, and was able to peruse the menu -- which, along with the valet parking, looks anything but Spartan!

Miramar Bistro

At $25 per head, that is cheap at twice the price!

Your LakeCountyEye had intended to post a link to Atsaves's blog -- Common Sense in Illinois' 10th -- but won't. Despite some heroic Googling, your LakeCountyEye found no mention of the event there, and may just have scooped Atsaves's widely unread blog on his own fundraiser!

All things notwithstanding, save one of those claws for your LakeCountyEye!
