Coming up: Lincoln-Reagan Dinner

Mark you calendar for Fri., Feb. 10. That's the date for our annaul Lincoln-Reagan Dinner, at Hidden Creek Country Club. We had a great L-R dinner last year with Lt. Gov. Bolling, and this year's event should be another gem. Details to follow.

Strong turn-out for January meeting

We had a large crowd on hand for the club's first meeting of the new year on Jan. 13. The gathering featured election of new officers, and several positions were contested. We thank all of the candidates, and the many RCGR members who participated. (Details on the election results will be posted shortly.)

Our next event is the annual Lineoln-Reagan Dinner on Feb. 10 - please join us!

Thanks also to everyone who attended our events last fall, including our fall picnic on Sep. 17 and our annual chili lit drop on Nov. 5.

In memoriam: Vera Hannigan

We sadly note the passing of our friend Vera Hannigan in September 2011, after an extended illness. Vera served for over 20 years as a Reston community volunteer and local Republican activist, including service as president of this club. Her enthusiasm and drive were inspiring to many, and she will be remembered fondly.

See notice and online guest book.

Thank you, 2011 candidates!

Congratulations to successful Republican candidates in northern Fairfax in the 2011 elections: State Delegates Barbara Comstock (R-34th), Jim LeMunyon (R-67th) and Tom Rust (R-86th), and to School Board member Patty Reed (Providence).

And we appreciate the campaigns of other GOP candidates from last year, including our own Spike Williams - and the hard work of so many volunteers. (See full list of 2011 candidates.)

Message from the new Club President

It is the goal of this club to actively support the election of those club members running for political office as well as supply direct support to the election of those Republicans running for higher offices in Virginia. To that end, we welcome new members to help us in that effort, to learn from a variety of speakers on hot-political topics as well as socializing with like-minded conservatives in the area of Reston, Great Falls, Sterling, Herndon, Chantilly, Oakton, Vienna, Dunn Loring, McLean and Tysons Corner.

We offer low-cost Single and Couple memberships, as well as Associate memberships to individuals whose locale limits their ability to regularly attending meetings. And we are actively growing our "Rising Tide" membership of younger Republicans and conservatives who want to get involved in the political process.

Come "inside" to see what we're all about and how you can affect your government!

Don Bedner
President, RCGR
