Our luncheon venue, the Lone Tree Golf Club and Hotel, is operated by South Suburban Parks and Recreation. All of their recreational facilities are closed through April 30th, and DCRW's April meeting has been canceled. In this time of crisis, our first thought is for your health and safety.  We truly hope that you are safe, healthy and adjusting as best as possible to this new norm. We just wanted to send a note of encouragement in these trying times. It's community and personal support that really makes a difference. Even though we're physically cut off from each other, today we are empowered to connect in ways that weren't possible before. For that we are grateful. If you are in good shape to deal with the hardships the country is going through…

February has been a month that most of us will not forget because of the visit by our President to Colorado.  If you were lucky enough to go and get in, I don’t have to explain the feeling to you; if you weren’t able to go, I will simply say I have in my lifetime been to many large gatherings, but never have I felt the energy and electricity that I felt in Colorado Springs on the 20th. The feelings, admiration and respect that President Trump and Senator Gardner have for each other was quite evident.  They will truly be an asset to each other in helping us to reelect both men.  I say ‘us’ because it is going to take each and everyone of us to accomplish this goal. …

Since we won’t meet until after Valentine’s Day, I want to wish you all a Happy Valentine’s Day! Democrats have surpassed Republicans in voter registration in Colorado, and it is crucial that we do everything we can to make sure all Trump supporters are registered to vote in 2020. The Trump Victory Campaign and the Colorado Republican Party are hosting a series of training sessions on voter registration.  I urge you to go to the Colorado GOP’s website and check out the dates, attend a meeting and volunteer.  We CAN turn Colorado Red in 2020, but we need to work together and ensure all Trump supporters are registered to vote. I encourage you to put March 7th on your calendar and attend Caucus.  The Douglas County Republican Party has posted…

Happy New Year! I hope you’ve enjoyed your time with your family and friends this Christmas and are feeling joyful and optimistic about 2020. This is the year we need to speak up and counter the negative and inaccurate information spewed by the liberal media and the Democrat leaders. Please stay informed and look for opportunities to explain what it means to be a conservative caring for our country and community.  This is not the year to sit on the political sidelines.  To start the New Year right, you’ll hear a status update on the National Popular Vote (NPV) issue at our January meeting. The Republican Caucus will be on March 7th – this is a great way to start getting involved in helping the Republicans in Colorado.  People who…

Before we jump into the Holiday Day Season, there are a few things we must do to start us off on the right foot in 2020. First, dues are due and must be paid by the end of November for you to be included in the DCRW 2020 Directory.  You may click here and pay online. Second, if you plan to or have purchased an ad to go in the DCRW 2020 Directory, Mona must have your ad copy by the end of November.  You may pay for ads online, also. Third, we must elect our officers for 2020-2021.  Our nominating committee presented a slate of officers at the October meeting; President  Barbara Piper 1st Vice President  Jeanette NewVille 2nd Vice President  Mona Weaver 3rd Vice President  Joyce Paloma Recording…

I just returned from the NFRW Convention in Indianapolis, home state of our Vice President Mike Pence.  In Indiana, Republicans hold every statewide-elected position, both U.S. Senate seats, seven U.S. House seats, super majorities in the Indiana House and Senate and 89% of County Commissioner seats: a goal the rest of the country should strive to achieve. While there, the Vice President learned of the NFRW Convention and dropped by the hotel to say, “Hi.”  Below is a short portion of what he had to say: “If you all will step forward, redouble your energy, get motivated this week and burst out of Indiana like this is the starting gate, and do all that you can in the days ahead, I believe we’re going to re-elect a Republican majority in…
