President’s Message:
Holly Comer
CCRWC 2005 President
“REPUBLICANS ROCK”S
Dear Fellow Republicans:
I hope you and yours had a wonderful holiday season and that 2005 is off to a fantastic start. Last year was a remarkable year for Republicans from national and state to local elections. Much of the success for these feats is due to our club and the dynamic members (both female and male) who support all our efforts to see that good and qualified Republicans are elected.
As we move into 2005, an off election year, we may think we can sit down and take a break...but reality is we cannot....we must continue to raise awareness of our party, what we stand for, and prepare for 2006. We need each and every one of you to continue to support this club and be a part of our efforts to continue to see this state and our country move more and more towards the “RED”.
I thank you for the honor of leading this club with its rich history of making things happen in the Republican Party...remember....Republicans Rock! Holly Comer, President
