Enjoy Potluck with the Candidates!
10 April @ 6:00 pm

Grant County Republican Headquarters
In Arenas Valley next to the Snappy Mart & Chevron Station

Mingle and Meet our candidates for local and state offices!

We'll put the coffee on and have our April General Meeting following the Meet 'N Greet. Ray Tavizon, one of two Republican candidates for Grant County Sheriff, will have a chance to speak as well as Robert Aragon, candidate for State Auditor, Dianne Hamilton, state representative for House District 38 and Lucy Whitmarsh, candidate for Grant County Clerk.

We have exciting plans to share for future events. Our "Honoring our Military Heroes", which we usually call Lincoln Day Dinner, will be held at WNMU on May 31st. We will have tickets available for this great event. If you buy your tickets early, your name will be put into a drawing and the 7 names that are drawn, will sit at John Sanchez's table for dinner--the Lt. Governor is our special speaker. Our honored guests will be the veterans who live in Grant County.

Our Train-the-Trainer session held last Monday was well received. Our newly edited training manual was available to the trainers who will in turn set up training times for Ward officers, Precinct captains and volunteers to attend to learn how to "talk and walk & knock" to encourage citizens to get out and vote! Our first phone bank calling will be at Headquarters, Monday, April 21st from 5-8 pm. If you have an hour or two, we can get you started--you'll find it's not hard at all to call when you are working along-side others doing the same thing. We'll have pizza and drinks to carry you through the evening.

On June 21st, we are honored to have Congressman Steve Pearce with us. We are hoping to have an outdoor event at Bataan Memorial Park. More details in the future--

We will have reports from the various Wards who are preparing for the upcoming Primary, reports on the gun raffle, which is one of the ways we raise money to help our candidates, and MORE!
