With their minds set on “Turning Illinois Red”, GOP women from across the state will head to southern Illinois in late August to share ideas, strengthen forces, and promote efforts that will help Republican
officeholders get elected to local, state and federal posts.
The Illinois Federation of Republican Women’s conference will be held Aug. 27-28 at the Holiday Inn Hotel and Conference Center in Carbondale.
On Aug. 27, Randy Pollard, President of the Illinois Republican County Chairman’s Association, will give tips on ensuring Republicans are the victors this November.
The next day, the women will hear from the national Republican Women’s President, Sue Lynch, and will attend a series of workshops. A speaker from the Illinois State Board of Elections will address recent filing
modifications. Statewide candidates will stop by to meet the attendees on both days.
Reduced hotel rates are available at the Holiday Inn Hotel and Conference Center and the nearby Hampton Inn. Room reservations are due July 30. Registration is due Aug. 15. For reservation and registration
information, go to www.ifrw.org.
The IFRW is the largest all-volunteer Republican women's organization in Illinois. United by Republican philosophy, the group is dedicated to electing Republican candidates to local, state and national office.
Additionally, IFRW provides leadership training, assistance in running for office, opportunities to meet political leaders and elected officials, networking opportunities, information about local, state and
national issues and involvement in campaigns and elections.
