A Letter from the Chairman

I am excited about being a Republican in growing Barrow County. And I want you and your family to join us, so you may share this excitement as a member of The Barrow County Republican Party!

When the local Party was re-chartered in 1994, there were no elected Republicans in Barrow County. Our primary goal was to elect Charlie Norwood (now deceased) to the U.S. Congress. After that victory, we succeeded in electing Republicans to a majority on the County Commission, and several county-wide offices. After the 2000 election, there were only 3 Democrats representing portions of Barrow County. We worked hard getting our message to the voters, persuading them to agree with our conservative Republican principles. After the 2002 election, Republicans held all elective offices.

We are THE FREEDOM PARTY! We support efforts to lower taxes (certainly not raising them). We believe less government intrusion is better for all citizens. We support equal opportunity for all citizens.

We have several membership levels, starting as low as $15.00 per year. Included in each membership is a monthly subscription to our BARROW REPUBLICAN NEWS. It includes dates, times, and places of important local meetings, and keeps you informed of various local Party activities. These memberships provide much-needed funds to support our activities and Republican candidates in the general elections. You could also help Republican candidates by working as a volunteer in individual campaigns.

You are invited to our ANNUAL REPUBLICAN BBQ held on a Saturday in August. We also participate in various parades and festivals in Barrow County during the year.

Please join us! You'll be glad you did. Make your check or money order payable (see application for membership levels) to the BARROW COUNTY REPUBLICAN PARTY and send to the address on the application. Or bring it with you to our next regular monthly meeting. We meet on the 3rd Monday of each month (except December) at 7:30 PM in the Winder Woman's Club, 15 W. Midland Ave. Bring a friend! The public is invited.

With warmest regards,

Kenneth R. Young
