AUGUST*SEPTEMBER*OCTOBER/CANDIDATES, CANDIDATES, CANDIDATES!

JOIN US EACH 2ND THURSDAY AT BELMONT VILLAGE FOR EACH MONTH FOR THE REST OF 2011!  WE OFFER GREAT, INFORMATIVE SPEAKERS, FELLOWSHIP WITH REPUBLICAN WOMEN AND MOTIVATION TO DO ALL WE CAN TO TAKE OUR GOVERNMENT BACK AND PUT THE USA ON THE RIGHT TRACK AGAIN!


Cumberland County/Fayetteville Municipal elections are upon us!  The FRWC's main objective is to help elect Republicans (duh!).  So for each of the next 3 months our speakers will be candidates.  Read to the end for our VERY SPECIAL GUEST IN NOVEMBER.


August 11th: John Szoka (candidate NC House/District 45-2012) and Wade Fowler (2010 NC Senate Candidate--2012-come hear his plans!)  These two men are both premier communicators and would be an asset to Cumberland Co. and all of NC if elected!


September 8th: All Fayetteville and Cumberland Co. municipal candidates who will be involved in a primary will be invited to speak. It is necessary to hear these fine folks in September because our Oct. meeting falls AFTER the Oct. 11th Primary voting day.  Our voices are needed in the choice of Republican candidates to run in November agaiinst Dem. opponents.  It is incumbent on us to pick some winners in October!!!


October 13th: Municipal candidates not involved in the Oct. 11th primary will be invited to speak.  **Know who you vote for and what they believe.  Let them hear our voices, so they also know--we WILL hold them accountable!


NOVEMBER 10th:  Rep. Renee Ellmers will be our very special guest.  She will run for reelection in  Nov. of 2012.  If ever a candidate deserves our help--is is Rep. Ellmers!  She is a Republican Woman and she will serve about 75% of Cumberland Co. in the newly drawn district maps.  Be with us in Nov.--and come prepared with questions and comments.  Also be prepared to decide how YOU can help this woman stay in Congress in 2012.


December 8th:  Our new Executive Board will be sworn in by our outgoing NCFRW Regional VP-Zan Bunn and our incoming NCFRW Regional VP.  They will also speak about the direction of the NCFRW in the all important election year of 2012!
**********************************************************************************

We have a cool treat for the warm month of July! NC Senator Wesley Meredith will be our welcomed guest and speaker!  He is an Associate member of the FRWC (his sweet wife Angela is a full member).  We are bursting with pride as we see that Sen. Meredith and the NC Legislature are doing exactly what they promised to do when we elected them last year.

Sen. Meredith will tell us how the process works, what the changes will mean to us, what will happen with the laws Governor Bev has vetoed, what we can expect from redistricting and what our NC future holds.  We are privileged to have Sen. Meredith with us...
