Blackbeard,
You don't have to "lobby" if you don't want. You get a button to wear so that all the legislators can identify "us". I normally setup a meeting with my Rep. and Sen. to discuss 2A (and other) issues. Most like to see and talk with their constituents.
Depending on what's on the agenda/schedule for that day, you may just sit in on various committee meetings (which may or may not having anything to do with 2A issues). Basically it's a show of force - Look, you're elected servants, we've got x number of gunowners (see all the folks wearing IGOLD buttons) who are willing to take the day off work to come down and keep an eye on you for the day. Think how many didn't come today when you go to vote on 2A legislation and how many of us vote.
Just your "presence" is lobbying, you don't have to say a word. That's why it's important. If nothing else you can meet other Illinois gunowners during the day and at the reception at the end of the day.
We will need the

stickers to wear so that we can say "HI".
