President: Pat Bohlender – What an honor it is to be the leader of such a dynamic group of women. We have a big mission ahead of us, but we have the team that can do it!! Our mission: To increase the effectiveness of Republicans in the cause of small government; to disseminate information; and to inform the public through political education and activity. I love my “job”!1st Vice President: Jean Daviet2nd Vice President: Janet Sloan ~ Colorado is changing dramatically! I value small government, low taxes and socially conservative ideals. I believe our community shares these values and is ready for educated discussion about politics in Colorado. This is the mission of the Greeley Republican Women. I am honored to serve on the Board as Membership Chairman.3rd Vice President: Carol O’Dey ~ “The Great Communicator” President Reagan, in his affable and self-deprecating manner, dismissed such a lofty title. He insisted that it wasn’t a matter of him being a great communicator, but rather it was the words, ideas and principles he communicated that were great. “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.” ~ President Ronald Reagan It is for this reason that I’m here at Greeley Republican Women. My grandchildren and great-grandchildren are depending on me; and I feel it’s my duty to educate, inform and promote American Exceptionalism and the conservative American values set down in the Declaration of Independence and the U. S. Constitution.Historian: Beth Burough ~ “My Country ‘tis of thee, sweet land of liberty…” My family and I proudly embrace the values and principles upon which our country was founded, and we are deeply grateful to the many who have fought and died to protect our freedom. I believe it is my responsibility—and privilege–to participate in the Republican party, not only through voting, but also in local efforts to promote the candidates and ideals we support!
