The Benton County Republican Women held their 2013 Potluck Christmas Party on December 16th in the Fireside Room at Kings Circle Assembly of God Church in Corvallis. The food was fabulous, the Christmas music by Dan Vickers, Pastor of Cowboy Church, was beautiful and the party stood as a wonderful wrap-up for the year. Our special guests and speakers were Oregon Federation of Republican Women (OFRW) President Sally MacLeod and Treasurer Eleanor Boese. Charlotte Vicker presented the book The Founding Conservatives: How a Group of Unsung Heroes Saved the American Revolution to Corvallis-Benton County Public Library Director Carolyn Rawles-Heiser. The installation of BCRW's 2014-2015 Officers was presided over by Eleanor Boese as outgoing BCRW President Carolyn Webb thanked her officers and board and the torch was passed to new president Stella Guenther, 1st Vice President Patricia Dysart, 2nd Vice President Jean Nelson, Recording Secretary Susan Newby, Corresponding Secretary Vonnie Noble and Treasurer Kim Rowe. President MacLeod shared uplifting words for the future focusing on education and political education. Following the potluck luncheon, a gift exchange was enjoyed by those participating. Merry Christmas to all!
