Many of you know our speaker, Peter Hannaford, as chairman of the Humboldt County Republican Central Committee for the last two years, but his career of more than forty years includes many more things. He was closely associated with President Ronald Reagan for nearly a dozen years, beginning in the Governors O ce in Sacramento. For several of those years, he was Mr. Reagans chief writer. Six years ago, after 22 years in Washington, D.C., Peter and his wife Irene decided to return to California and settled in Eureka because of long ties to Humboldt County. Here he has served on the County Grand Jury, the City of Eurekas Finance Advisory Committee and as editorial pages editor of the late Eureka Reporter newspaper. His columns on current events are published frequently in The American Spectators daily online edition. Over the years, he has had eleven books published, the latest of which is Presidential Retreats, and he is going to tell us about them, over lunch at Baywood....

The Right Stu
Dear Friends of Republican Women, Federated, It is my hope that all of you had a blessed and happy Christmas and New Year and, with smiles on your faces, are picking up the remnants of 2012 and readying yourselves for our new beginning. As with any of the disappointments in our lives, life goes on; and how we handle those times of frustration and disillusionment determines if we are made of the right stu . Last November, Debbie, Rose and I attended a California Federated Republican Women conference in Rancho Cordova, near Sacramento. Having been installed as your newly elected president the day before, my head was spinning with ideas to share with you as we walk together into our new year as Republican women. I was equally thrilled to learn that the state sta had been discussing the same ideas as well. The entire conversation obviously centered on rebuilding at each level of our organization for the central purpose of breaking down the false concepts and judgments that had been placed on Republicans and Republican women in particular. Do you realize that it was the Republican Party that set the slaves free? Or that Republicans were responsible for starting the Su ragette movement? Dont forget that it was Teddy Roosevelt who started the United States Forestry Service where 194 million acres were placed in reserve. In addition, he was also responsible for anti-trust regulation which opposed the practices of big business as it related to the people of America he had sworn to protect. He had the right stu , and so do we. Its time to rebuild. What will we propose to achieve this year and the year to come in our community? What will it look like? Lets talk. With all of us working together toward common goals, the work will always be lighter. Looking forward to seeing you at the Baywood Golf and Country Club on Jan 17th at 11:30 A.M. The luncheon cost is $16.50 for Caesar Salad or Tri-colored Cheese Pasta with Chicken. Beverages only: $3.00. This is our White Elephant fundraiser, so clean out those drawers and closets for those treasures which need sharing. As I think of the potential of this group of amazing women, Im excited about our future as a group and the impact we can make in our community. You are the Right Stu . Warmest regards,
HGOP Central Committee Meeting (postponed from Jan. 3rd) Thursday, Jan. 17th
We meet third Thursdays 11:30-1:00 This one is at Baywood Golf & County Club Be sure to RSVP!

AMERICANISM REPORT
Because our military families living overseas live at, or just above, the poverty level, HRWF decided to help support our troops by clipping 'manufacturer's coupons' for food and household items from newspapers and magazines and mailing them to an overseas military base. These coupons are honored at PXs on American bases around the world and help defray the cost of family living. (They are even honored several months after the expiration date.) This is a very worthwhile program we are proud to support. In November of 2009, the face value of our rst mailing was $5,988; our three mailings in 2010 totaled $45,011; 2011 mailings totaled $54,184; our rst 2012 mailing was $30, 504, for a grand total, to date, of $135,690.
____________________
If you would like to help, here are the GUIDELINES FOR COUPONS:
Cut out and trim Manufacturer's Coupons only. NO store coupons (like Target, Rite Aid, Safeway) and NO restaurant coupons (like Olive Garden, Red Lobster, etc.)] Sort into 2 piles: Food and Non-Food (use 2 baggies or envelopes; label each). FOOD includes: all food/beverages for humans, candy, gum, mints, diet drinks, baby formula, drinks. NON-FOOD includes: vitamins, drugs, dog food, cat food, cosmetics, cleaning products, etc. Add up the face value of coupons in each category. For FREE items, check coupon for amount, such as "Up to $2.99," etc.; otherwise, estimate. Write total on each envelope. Bring to me, GOP Headquarters, or the President at or before our next meeting.
____________________
On Nov. 19th, I mailed a box containing over $31,000 worth of coupons to our Air Force base on Okinawa. Our total for 2012 is $104,577. and, since we started in November, 2009, $209,762. Thank you all so much for your invaluable help with this project. It is greatly appreciated by our troops, by HRWF, and by me. Chris Wennerholm 725-2020.
