Hi everyone and welcome back to another fun-filled semester of College Republicans!

At tonight’s meeting we went over everything CPAC related. By this point everyone should have had their money turned in and their forms signed. CPAC is from February 17-20. If you have any questions/comments/concerns about this please feel free to email me or another e-board member.

Ron Paul speaking @ CPAC 2009.

CPAC (Conservative Political Activist Conference) will be February 18-20th 2010 in Washington DC.
We are putting in a program proposal for $2K from the Finance Committee/SGA. The main expenses are going to be food, transportation, hotels and registration. If we can get most of it covered (aka hotels) by the school then you’re looking at spending around $125 total. If we don’t get it covered the price will go up considerably since hotels are going to be pricey. Either way we will fundraise and this is going to be a great event. Gary and Brenden have lots of connections for tours and anyone interested in politics at all will really get a lot out of this!

Important: In order to ask for money from the Finance Committee we need a list of people who are seriously committed on going…meaning you MUST register for this event BEFORE Thanksgiving Break. Once you register please forward your registration info to brenden.higashi@student.shu.edu.
