Twenty-eight Wood County Republican members and Associate members, both current and new, gathered together at the Parkersburg Country Club today despite the ice and cold temperatures. The food was delicious and the atmosphere one of family and friends. President, Deidre' Lake, informed the members of the various "perks" to being a member of WCRW. Directories and membership brochures were available. Information on the Dorthy Andrews Kabis Memorial Internship was shared and candidates are being sought. Appication deadline is February 15. Volunteer Chair, Joan Lucas, was present and expressed her desire to receive ALL club members' volunteer hours monthly via email or phone. Homeland Security/Armed Forces Chair, Tiffany Gibson, shared project information in which the club donated flags and other patriotic items to the students at North Christian School to aid in their celebration of Veterans Day. The Honorable Del. Anna Border was our Guest Speaker. She gave an informative and creative, visual presentation on "How a Bill becomes a Law". Peggy Meriner won the door prize that was provided by Mary Ann Osborne.
Several Republican candidates for re-election were present at the luncheon: Senator Donna Boley, Senator David Nohe, Delegate Bill Anderson, Delegate Anna Border, Delegate Tom Azinger, Rich Shaffer, Wood County Assessor and Robin Waters, Wood County Magistrate. Republican candidates seeking election present were Fred Gillispie for House of Delegates (10th District) and Rachel Ferguson for Wood County Magistrate.
