Presidents Message 2nd Quarter

Kim Icenhower
President

The Republican Primary is over and whether your candidate won or lost, it is time to support our Republican candidates in the General Election in November. Our candidates need our help and not just with money. In 2022 we lost some of our Judge races by very few votes. Let’s reclaim all County Republican seats.

There are many ways you a support our Republican Candidates, if you are looking for ways to support candidates, talk to any of the officers in our Club.

Our Club was a Volunteer Force at the 2024 Lincoln Reagan Dinner on April 19, 2024. This was an amazing event with Dr. Ben Carson and Matthew Whitaker as speakers. See the photo below. Angela Hayes, FBRWC Past President oversaw Registration with many of our club members on her committee. Jeannie Z, Katy RWC oversaw the Live Auction and Auction Check Out. Jennifer Haar, Katy RWC and Associate Member of the FBRWC was Co-Chair. Bobby Eberle, our County GOP Chair. Elizabeth Walker, Greater Katy Area Republicans was Co-Chair, Lois Gremminger oversaw Decorations, and Debbi Stryk, FBRWC member oversaw the Silent Auction.

At our April Membership Meeting we asked everyone to wear Jeans in honor of Denim Day. This day of action and awareness is an event in which people are encouraged to wear denim to combat victim blaming and educate others about sexual violence. We look good in jeans!

New members are always welcome. If you need any help, please contact our club at fortbendrepublicanwomen@gmail.com.

Our May 15th gathering will be a fundraiser event honoring our 2024 scholarship recipients. Building on the success of our event last year we will again enjoy an evening themed: “Branching Out – A Celebration of Mentorships.”

Attendees will enjoy wonderful presentations by our Scholarship recipients and our slated Guest Speaker, Senator Lois Kolkhorst. During the evening there will be guided conversation topics, an “Experiences” Silent Auction and other special surprises giveaways. Our Book Drive is underway, and we will accept Books at any of our meetings.

Volunteers Rock! The Committee for the May Scholarship and December 50^th Anniversary events are hard at work. These events will both be at Sugar Creek Country Club and will both be fundraiser events. The May event funds will benefit our Scholarship fund and the December Event will benefit help replenish our Candidate funds. The Committee is still in need of committee members. If you want to get involved, please contact me and we will find a place for you.

We welcome you to be a member and to be active in our club
