June Hamilton County GOP Newsletter, YR Update
By admin | June 8, 2009
Here is June’s YR update for the County’s GOP newsletter:
Fellow Republicans,
2009 so far has been a very exciting year for the Young Republicans. We have seen our meeting attendance grow to 20-30 active young people, with new members every month. We have added a monthly Social Hour that has been a great outreach to people that normally wouldn’t get involved in politics. We have started a Community Outreach program, beginning by cleaning up parks in the heart of our city. It has been a busy, productive year for the YRs, and we look forward to doing even more going forward into next year’s elections.
With money we are raising over the year we will assist with phone banking, canvasing, and advertising to help strong, principled republicans get elected in Hamilton County. We have a strong, detailed plan to continue to grow our party’s foundation and prepare the leaders of tomorrow. Our meetings are open to all of Hamilton County so please join us to catch the excitement going on with the future of the Republican party!
Our next Social Hour is June 18th, 6:45pm, where we will meet at the Front Gate of AT&T Field to watch the Chattanooga Lookouts. On the 25th we will have our regular monthly meeting, location TBA. To stay up-to-date with what is going on with your Young Republicans, please sign up for our newsletter at http://www.hcyrs.com/.

YR April Meeting
By admin | April 15, 2009
Our next meeting will be at Abuelo’s outside of Hamilton Place mall on April 23rd at 6:30. It is going to be a little different…with all of the new members we’ve been seeing I’ve got a lot of questions about YRs, what we are going to do, and what our goals are. So, this month we are going to take a break from having a speaker and will have a conversation about just that. I’ve been working hard on defining the next two years for the YRs, and I will be presenting a “blue print”, including our goals, involvement opportunities, and will take any questions you have about the YRs. This is going to be a very good year for the Hamilton County Young Republicans and I can’t wait to share my vision with all of you!
