8th District Meeting

Saturday was the 8th district meeting in Mountain Grove. Great group of ladies. Two past MoFRW Presidents were present Charline Sherrill and Mellene Schudy. Attorney Dee Wampler did an excellent program on the topic: Myth of Church vs State. It was very informative. Congratulations to Mellene Schudy who was elected president of the 8th district for 2011-13.

1st, 2nd, 3rd, District Meeting

Wednesday, Oct. 12 I went to Kirkwood for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd District Meeting. The third district as it is now will be undergoing a big change with redistricting. Those clubs will be going into the second district. It was a wonderful meeting complete with a visit from Abe Lincoln. Congratulations to Robyn Hamlin, elected as president of 1st district and Sharon Barnes, elected as president of 2nd district. Thanks to the outgoing presidents - Aline Neuman, Arleen Jackson and Gerry Gilberg for their service as presidents of their districts.

7th District Meeting

Thanks to the Christian County Republican Women for hosting a great 7th District meeting yesterday. They showed true hospitality. Congratulations to Chris Kahl on her election as the 2012-13 president. Thanks to Lacey Hart for her service the past two years as 7th District President.

2011 NFRW Convention

We had a great week in Kansas City for the NFRW Convention. There were ladies there from 47 states and Puerto Rico. We heard great speakers and elected officers for the 2012-13 year. Congratulations to our own Carrie Almond on being elected NFRW Treasurer.

Saturday evening Missouri hosted a hospitality room for anyone attending. I have no idea how many we had but well over 200. That is a lot of coming and going in a small hotel parlor with one door. We provided them with BBQ and many varieties of finger foods. I think we represented Missouri well.

Thanks to all of our members who attended, volunteered, sent/made food, made phone calls or sent a donation. We could not have done it without you.

Now we start district meetings with our first two this Saturday. No time to rest.
