Navajo Canyon Republican Women Federated (NCRWF) members are planning an action-packed, fun-filled early evening event open to everyone including spouses, friends and family at the El Cajon Elks Lodge Tuesday, Aug. 9. This special evening begins at 5 p.m. with bidding on many donated items of value at the Road Show Silent Auction. The auction will continue throughout the evening with a no-host bar for adult beverages and a full-course dinner at 6 p.m., followed by the program.

Well-known radio and television personality Bob “Sully” Sullivan and our own District 7 City Councilman Scott Sherman, who enjoy political bantering on the radio, are bringing their “show” on the road, offering a unique mix of political commentary and good-natured humor. Please RSVP to NCRWF99@gmail.com or call Marjie at 619-990-2791. Cost is $30. The El Cajon Elks Club is located at 1400 E. Washington Ave. in El Cajon.

NCRWF will have a full schedule this fall. We will continue to meet at The Brigantine restaurant in La Mesa on the second Tuesday of each month at 11 a.m. Cost for the full-course luncheons and program will remain the same at $20. Reservations are required at NCRWF99@gmail.com.

On Sept. 13, we will have a full review of the proposed general election’s propositions and taxes by San Diego Tax Fighters chairman Richard Rider. Voters need this crucial information before entering the ballot booth.

The differing philosophies between Republicans and Democrats will be enumerated by Tony Krvaric, Chairman of the San Diego County Republican Party and Shirley Kaltenborn will review the history of Federated Republican Women.

Oct. 11 will feature California District 71 Assemblyman Brian Jones as he finishes his final term. His observations on the State Assembly should be very illuminating.

Finally, we’ll get an Election Wrap-up on Nov. 15 by prominent political consultant, Jason Roe. As he is involved in many campaigns locally and nationally, we can expect to hear the inside scoop and many anecdotes from the campaign trail.

Membership in Navajo Canyon RWF is open to any woman who is a registered Republican. For more information on all our activities, visit our newly-designed website, navajocanyonrwf.org and check us out on Facebook.
