Salute to 8 New Members
 
          Recruiting new members is a major Dallas Downtown Republican Women’s Club goal. We are having great success this year. Eight new members have joined thus far in 2010.      DDRWC heartily welcomes Shari Atkinson, Pat Canning, Cornelia Cree, Leah Hayden, Elva Moon, Victoria Perez, Cathy Reeves, and Catherine Roberts. Their energy and enthusiasm are wonderful. Our new members are making a difference.
            Early in the year, DDRWC faced a leadership challenge when Kay Bashour, our vice president for campaign activities and membership chairman, had to resign to care for her injured mother. Cornelia agreed to serve as VP-campaign activities, and Victoria became membership chairman. We are grateful for their contribution.
            Cornelia regularly volunteers at Republican Headquarters as telephone receptionist and assumed the responsibility of finding volunteers to staff the reception desk.
            Several new DDRWC members were delegates or volunteers at the Republican State Convention in Dallas in June.
            We urge DDRWC members to bring friends who are prospective members to our annual membership recruitment meeting Tuesday, Aug. 10, at Dallas Republican Headquarters.
            Our speaker will be Candy Noble, Senatorial District 8 state committeewoman. Prior to being elected to the State Republican Executive Committee, Candy worked innumerous GOP campaigns in both Dallas and Collin Counties. She is a precinct chairman in Collin County and served two years as Golden Corridor Republican Women president. Candy sat at the DDRWC table at the 2010 Republican State Convention.
            Today, Americans are angry and frustrated with the Obama administration and the Democrat-dominated Congress. They are sick of out-of-control government spending and the skyrocketing national debt. Many people who have not been politically involved are asking what they can do to take back America.
            You can help by inviting your friends to join DDRWC. Via our club, they can get the Republican message directly from party leaders, learn the political process, and volunteer in campaigns to elect Republicans to public office at every government level.
