CRP FALL CONVENTION SOCKS FOR SOLDIERS DINNER & AUCTION

Recently I was sharing with Second Vice President Jane Burchit my dilemma regarding this months message. My goal in each of my previous newsletters has been to encourage, embolden, ignite and empower members to action within our organization and beyond. For we cannot complacently sit back and think that somehow the Genie of the Universe will take care of everything related to our purpose and reasons for existence. If we do, we could lose our place in politics as a party and the imprint the club could make through its community participation. I think it was Jane who suggested I should write about what membership means. To be honest, I thought it was a good idea, but questioned what I could say without sounding manipulative, sanctimonious, commanding, demanding, ad nauseum with the downer terms. Besides, what does membership mean? It is my hope that our goal as an organization has been to support HRWF raise its sights in membership growth, participate more within HRWF (many hands equaling lighter workloads), and an increase our presence in community service participation. Making an impact in our community takes numbers, time, and commitment. The obvious conclusion is the need for all members to reconsider their time commitments to the organization. Im not talking hours of work in most cases. I am suggesting, however, that each of us decide how we can assist the current chairs with their jobs. Laura Bush will be leaving her position of taking our reservations; thus, we will need at least two people to step up to assist. We have lightened expectations of the position somewhat and we will support those who step up to the challenge. Additionally, Terry Roberts has been membership Chair for many years. She could de nitely use some support. Another much desired position is one of calendar keeper. You would be supporting Rose Welsh. Rose is more of a gift than any of us truly understand. She is amazing, but only has 24 hours in a day like the rest of us. Veritably, for the longest time, we have also needed a Publicity Chair. Again, its not a great deal of work, and Id be happy to help proofread your writing, if youre apprehensive at all. Heck, Chris Wennerholm proofreads my work and Im a retired English teacher! Here in HRWF, its about working with and supporting each other. There are no queens here, only servants. We could use a small cadre of you to brainstorm ways we as HRWF can involve ourselves in our community to show we care. There is unity in community! So what does membership mean? I think you get the picture On another note, one of the dearest members of the Republican Party and Humboldt Republican Women, Federated, went to be with her Lord this past week. Colleen Hedrick was one of the best at being a member. We will dearly miss her. On still another note, our speaker for next month, Oct. 17th, is Debi Baciagalupe, who will be informing us about Agenda 21 and its advances within the state, into the country and the world. The following month will feature Orlean Koehle, who will be discussing Common Core and its relation to Agenda 21. Become informed. Stay informed. Together we ght the good ght! Warm regards,

5th District Supervisor Ryan Sundberg

Hamburgers and hot dogs were the traditional faire of the day, provided by the RCC. Attendees generously provided delicious side dishes and desserts, and if anyone went home hungry, it was their own fault! Ryan Sundberg, Supervisor of District 5 and current Chairman of the Board of Supervisors was our guest speaker. Not only was his talk informative and enlightening as to the update on the General Plan, welfare mandates, and homelessness, but we had the added treat of Supervisor Rex Bohn in attendance. He added pertinent information to the discussion; and with the additional comments and questions from the oor, all left the event with a deeper understanding of the positive goals and purposes of the Board of Supervisors to improve so much in our county. Kudos and thank you to all who were so supportive in the planning and execution of this event. Thinks couldn't have run more smoothly. As usual, the Humboldt Republican Women rose to the occasion; and I couldn't be prouder of you or more grateful for you. With the additional support from members of the RCC, this was one awesome picnic! There is one person, however, who needs to be highlighted in this article for his strong, silent, unwavering support of the cause. That man is Gary Frank. He came early, painstakingly cleaned the grill before and after the picnic, and cooked hamburgers and hot dogs for all in between. I didn't know men could be so even tempered while working so hard! Thank you, Gary. You're the best! Our picnic date is always the last Sunday in September, rain or shine. Mark that date on your calendars for next year. Bring and umbrella and galoshes, because the party is always on!

In spite of the drizzle, those who attended our annual Republican Central Committee on Sunday, September 29th, had a great time.

Remembering Colleen

From CFRW

On September 18, 2013, our dear past HRWF President, Mighty Mouse, champion for causes and improvements she believed in, and beloved caring friend, Colleen Hedrick, peacefully passed from Earth, becoming a resident of Heaven. Physically, Colleen was a tiny, diminutive ladythe smallest of any of our members. Yet her stamina and energy surpassed anyones I have ever known! I called her our Mighty Mouse President! Colleens visions were far-reaching. If she could imagine it, she could accomplish it and she did! During her two terms as our president, Colleen spearheaded drives for (1) books donated to local schools (allowing teachers to suggest desired American History choices), (2) supported a womens shelter with clothing, (3) care packages for our military, (4) coupons for military families, (5) club name change from Eureka Republican Women, Federated, to Humboldt Republican Women, Federated, to more accurately describe our membership, and (6) the establishment of an annual college scholarship for children connected to our club members. This last item took much work and several years to come to fruition. Last year we decided to name the scholarship in Colleens honor, after all, it probably would never have been realized without Colleens determination! Having lost her dear husband in 2001, Colleen carried on productively without the support of her soul mate. Over the years, Colleen worked as a newspaper writer and sold advertising. She excelled at organizing and writing on signi cant issues. After Colleens terms as our president, her health began to decline, yet she stayed as active as she could, using her computer and telephone to communicate and organize for pressing issues. Colleen so loved her family, her friends, her country, God, HRWF and its membership, and working to improve our world. While her family and friends will miss her here on Earth, Colleen is nally reunited with her beloved Bob. He no doubt has been waiting for his little reball wife to join him. I can only imagine how Colleen is helping God better organize and implement valuable changes in Heaven. Heaven is deemed perfect already, yet I bet Colleen is thinking of improvements that nobody else has imagined yet! You go, girl!!!

NFRW President Elect Kathy Brugger

The NFRW Convention is behind us and I look forward to hearing all the wonderful things attendees learned. Of course, we are all aware our wonderful Kathy Brugger is now the NFRW President Elect! We will be honoring NFRW President-Elect Kathy Brugger at the CRP Convention to be held in Anaheim on Friday, October 4, 2013. We really are at the "Table". For those attending we hope you have signed up for the dinner so we will have a great showing. Our CFRW CRP Liaison Dianna Gadberry has been working on our caucus meeting to be held on Saturday, October 5, in the afternoon. Make sure to look in your agendas for time and location. If we truly want be "At the Table" we need to be involved, so please attend and meet those candidates seeking o ce next year. Next, the deadline for registering for the CFRW Convention at the Stockton Hilton, Stockton, CA is this Friday. Our convention will be held October 25-27th. If you want to make a di erence, be in attendance and help choose the next CFRW President. Even if you are not a delegate you can make a di erence by campaigning for your choice. We have some outstanding workshops with great presenters. McGeorge Law Professor Rex Frazier, CFRW Parliamentarian Joy Stewart, and former CFRW Central Division Parliamentarian Irenemaree Castillo will be presenting some outstanding workshops. Rex's workshop will be Friday afternoon with Joy and Irenemaree's being held on Saturday before the elections. Again, thank you for your love and thoughts these past two weeks. My son is still amazed at the wonderful out pouring of love sent to him through me. Please remember other members who have lost loved ones. Marti Over eld, CFRW Central Division Americanism, and Sacramento RWF 1st Vice President Beverly Anderson are mourning losses these past two weeks as well. Carol Hadley CFRW President

Je Foxworthys politically incorrect humor pokes fun at himself, at rednecks, and yes, even at the The Religion of Peace. Sometimes people are o ended. Most people laugh. Whats not so funny is whats been happening in Egypt, in Kenya, and elsewhere in the Middle East: the horri c attacks, and unimaginable torture at the Westgate Mall in Kenya, where women and children were slaughtered by Islamic extremists if they could not recite the Koran. The Muslim Brotherhoods slaughter of Christians and Coptic Christians in Egypt doesnt get much coverage on the national news, and it doesnt warrant a speech from President Obama, whos in favor of arming these thugs, but its happening, and it puts a new light on Foxworthys jokes. Whats more o ensive? We REALLY encourage you to get acquainted with the New Media. Its not just Talk Radio, though thats a big piece. Its alternative online news sites, like The Drudge Report, a news aggregator with links to news organizations all over the world, its Breitbarts BIGS; Big Journalism, Big Hollywood, Big Peace; its HotAir, and PJ Media (we used to call it Pajamas Media). Its conservative voices like Michelle Malkin, William A. Jacobsen at Le-gal In-sur-rec-tion, John Hayward at Human Events, Victor Davis Hanson and Mark Steyn at National Review and Townhall. Its Roger L. Simon, Hugh Hewitt and Guy Benson at PJ Media. There are many, many more articulate super intelligent voices, working hard every day to bring you the REAL story. Youll nd links every day on our website and we encourage you to visit every day. www.hrwf-ca.org. Make it your homepage.
