On Thursday, December 13th, the Benton County Republican Women met for their annual Christmas Party to celebrate all the hours of hard work that members and volunteers put in throughout this election year. We enjoyed Christmas music by Dan Vickers, Pastor of Cowboy Church, and friends. We had a lovely potluck luncheon, heard words of appreciation and Charlotte Vickers presented library books to the librarian of the Corvallis-Benton County Public Library. Colleen Ghasedi talked about her mission to Uganda and about the LifeSeeds organization. As part of our Republican Women in Business (RWIB) program, Wendy McCormick was featured and spoke about her Live Wise Now business. Trisha Graham displayed her World Ventures wholesale travel materials and spoke briefly. Our special guest speakers were Joyce Waggoner, President of Oregon Federation of Republican Women and Eleanor Boese, OFRW District IV Director. Members brought canned goods or contributions to LifeSeeds to help provide food for local families and clothing for Altrusa's Career Closet, which provides business or work clothing for women in need.
