A Message from DFCR

College Republicans of The First State,

I’m very excited to tell you about all of the great events that we have planned for you all between now and the end of September. The UDCR and Wesley CR board, along with the DFCR, have been working hard to give you the opportunity to join in the conservative movement, but more importantly, to make friends and have a great time! I think we’re all going to have a fantastic year…

1.) We still need more volunteers for the special election in the 19th State Senate District (located in Sussex County). The election is on Monday, August 3rd. We need volunteers for any day through Monday. Please let us know ASAP if you can help out and we can hopefully even arrange a ride for you.

2.) 9/12 Tea Party Protest – Another Tea Party protest will be held in DC on September 12th. This one will be big! Transportation to and from DC is only $20, a discounted price for students. We all had a great time at the protest in Wilmington and I’m sure it will be better in DC.

3.) Freshman Welcome Cookout – We will be holding a cookout to welcome back all returning CR’s, as well as introduce and attract new members to the club. Free food, games, and (hopefully) sun. If you have any interest in helping out, please let us know. Dates: UD – Saturday, September 19th @ 5:00 pm; Wesley - TBA

Please be sure to check out the new DFCR website at www.dfcr.org! You may be interested in checking out the “Internship Opportunities” section. The link is towards the bottom of the homepage.

And lastly, invite friends!!

Thanks for your time and can’t wait to see you all. Contact me or your chapter president with any questions.

Sincerely,

Brad Headley
Chairman
Delaware Federation of College Republicans
