Lincoln / Reagan Day Dinner a Huge Success

Over 350 Republicans attended the Lincoln / Reagan Day Dinner on May 5.  Karl Rove gave an energizing speech covering the economy and the war on terror.  This was the largest Republican event ever produced in Charlotte County and from start to go, came off without a hitch thanks to the organizational committee which included Sue and Scott Ruekel and Betty and Raul Fernandez and several others who worked hard to make this a truly memorable occasion.   Mr. Rove was presented with a Resolution passed at the last Executive Committee meeting, which he will deliver to President Bush.  The Text of the resolution appears below:
