Executive Committee Officers for 2008-2010

One of the most important tasks PCPs have is selecting the officers who will lead Marion County Republicans each biennium and selecting who will represent the county on the State Central Committee of the Republican Party. We definitely look forward to the challenges facing us as we continue to grow and reach out to the residents of Marion County. Following is the executive committee:

Chair:   Wayne Brady
Vice-Chair:   David Williams
Secretary:   Ryan Evenson
Treasurer:   David Schreffler
Delegates to State Central Committee (4):  Andrea Hoffman, Ruth Pike, Tyler Smith, Jan Williamson
Alternate Delegates (6):  Craig Myers, Marc Lucca, Joyce Waggoner, Davis Dyer, Rick Hickey

Action Plan Status Report

Grassroots workshops, meeting monthly on the third Thursday of the month (see our calendar for the next scheduled meeting), are one method of reaching out to interested activists in the community who may not otherwise be connected to the Republican Party. PCPs will find much at these workshops to help them as they work in their precincts to strengthen the party.

Check the following list of active committees, each with a brief description of its primary task, for one in which you can get involved:

•   Affiliate Liaison — Coordinates activities of MCRCC, Capitol City Republican Women, Valley Pachyderm Club, and College Republicans
•   Candidate Development — Recruit and support candidates for elective offices in Marion County
•   Communications & Education — Improve communications, publicity, and voter education. This includes a newsletter, this web site, and working with the press.
•   Finance & Budget — Prepare and monitor annual budgets; generally assist the Treasurer
•   Republican Registration — Maximize Republican Party registration in the County
•   Revenue Development — Raise the funds required to allow the MCRCC to fulfill its obligations
•   Special Events — Organize and manage event participation in parades, fairs, and other public events, as well as MCRCC events.
•   Logistics — Provide logistical support for the functions and activities of the MCRCC.

We have about 20 people who are very active in these workshops; we really need more participants. If you would like to help the party prepare for 2008, please contact me at the phone number below or e-mail me.

In addition to people to work on the committees listed above, we need volunteers to help with our precinct work. You could be in charge of a House district, a precinct, or a part of a precinct. This is the front line that makes a difference in getting out the vote. Although the most intense work occurs as we approack election day, there is plenty of work to do now. Please consider signing up for one of these positions.
