1. Sign for the Lake County Pachyderms:
Our new banner is completed and ready for pick up in Kalispell.  Frank will work with Tracy Sharp to coordinate the pick up.  We will use the new banners in the Republican Headquarters beginning in September
 

2. Cancellation of the Cherry Festival and the 4th of July Parade:
All of the events that we had planned on supporting/participating in have been canceled due to the Corona Virus.  We would like to see as many people as possible                participate in the Flathead Lake 4th of July Boat Parade that the Lake County Republican Women are sponsoring.  The event is being publicized in the local newspapers, radio and tv stations.  We hope to have a fantastic turnout!

3. Speakers for upcoming meetings: Joe Read, Austin Knudsen, and Greg Hertz, Greg Gianforte representative. Others?

Suggestions for speakers include: Steve Daines, Dan Solomon, Matt Rosedale, Troy Downing and our Sheriff Don Bell.  Don Bell was suggested due to what is going on in the United States right now so we will be able to understand how we can better support our local law enforcement officers!

The last meeting with the health officials was very well received.  The audience appreciated being able to speak to the medical professionals about the virus and get first hand information!

4. Opportunity for Republican volunteers to man the Republican Party Office in  Polson:
We will be working with the LCRW and Central Committee to enlist volunteers to staff the Lake County Republican Headquarters beginning September 2nd, 2020. 

 

The location is  the Scoops ice cream parlor located across the street from the liquor store in Polson. 

 

The Headquarters will be open tentatively from 10-6 Monday through Saturday and Sunday 11-4.  We will be looking for volunteers to work 2 hour slots with two people working together at all times wherever possible.  There will be decorations for the Headquarters but those are still TBA!  Please watch for an email requesting volunteers over the next week or so!

​

Lake County had a parade on June 14 in Polson to celebrate President Trump’s Birthday!  There were 24 vehicles driving their vehicles honking their horns and cheering through Polson! Great turnout for such short notice!
