Dear Members and Fellow Republicans,

Welcome to the Manatee Forum, Republican Women Federated web site and the  “YEAR OF THE CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN"
What an election it has been and the Manatee Forum congratulates the winners in Manatee County:
Senator:                                      Marco Rubio
Attorney General:                      Pam Bondi
Agriculture Commissioner:        Adam Putnam
Chief Executive Officer:            Jeff Atwater
Legislators in Manatee:            Greg Steube
                                                    Jim Boyd
                                                    Ray Pilon
County Commissioners:            Robin DiSabatino
                                                    Carol Whitaker
School Board:                            Julie Aranibar
Many of our members worked tirelessly in all the above campaigns and we look forward to working now with the elected officials to keep the Conservative values going.  We as the Forum will be attending the opening sesssion of the Legislature in Tallahassee and welcome anyone who would like to come along.  This is a great experience and a way to see our legislators in action and to walk the halls of the Capitol.
2011 is fast approaching and with it will be an exciting year for the Forum.  We will be continuing our policy of education meetings on the issues as well as tracking the voting of our elected officials.  With the Republican National Convention in Tampa this coming year we plan on becoming involved in the activities.  2012 is right around the corner and we plan on being in the front seat.
We welcome any Conservative Republican to our meetings, both men and women.  This Republican Women's Federated Club has just about 50-50 split of membership with men and women.  Our meetings are lively and well after the meeting is over the members are speaking with our speakers.

Pat Baker
