GOP Monthly Meeting Set For April 18th

Larry Ford

Press Release

The April Clay County GOP meeting on Thursday, April 18th, will be upstairs in the Community Services Building at 6:30 pm and is open to all Clay County Republicans and Unaffiliated voters.  Light refreshments, snacks, and desserts will begin the evening and attendees are encouraged to bring a covered dish, snack, or dessert to share. The business meeting will follow at 7:00 PM.

The featured speaker will be retired Secret Service and Federal Law Enforcement agent Doug Atkins, who will give a presentation on personal security and situational awareness.  Given the Democrats' policies on the "wide-open" Southern Border, with "Lord knows Who" coming across every day with no screening, plus their emphasis on "defunding Law Enforcement" and abolishing bail bond requirements, citizens are in greater personal danger than ever before.  Mr. Atkin's presentation could not be more timely.

Also speaking will be Ms. Kristy Parton, a Republican Attorney from Bryson City (Swain County) who is seeking to fill the District Judgeship vacated by Judge Tessa Sellers, a Clay County resident. Judge Sellers was recently appointed by Gov. Cooper as our resident Superior Court Judge for the 43A Judicial District, leaving her District Court Judgeship seat currently vacant.

The Community Services Building is located at 25 Riverside Drive, Hayesville, NC 28904.

*** LAW ENFORCEMENT APPRECIATION NIGHT MAY 16th ***

On Thursday evening, May 16th, the Clay County Republican Party will host its 5th annual "Law Enforcement Appreciation Night" at the Lions Club Pavilion on Lake Chatuge in the Clay County Rec Park off Myers Chapel Road.

Be sure to mark this event for your attendance as we once again distinguish Republicans from the Democrats by honoring our local Law Enforcement Officers from the Clay County Sheriff's Office and our local Highway Patrol Troopers. The Clay County GOP and donors will furnish BBQ for this event. More details to follow in next month's Newsletters.
