. . . . . . . Federation's Festive Fall Meeting . . . . . . .

Putnam County Republican Women hosted a Festive Fall Board Meeting (WVFRW) October 3rd & 4th, 2008. The meeting was held at the Sleepy Hollow Golf Club in Hurricane, West Virginia. Putnam County President Nancy Bradley (in photo above left, with fellow club member Iva Danner) was on hand at all times, along with fellow club members, to provide welcome greetings and big smiles for all.

Donna Lou Gosney was featured speaker for the meeting. Donna is GOP National Committeewoman for the State of West Virginia. At one point, federation members had Donna surrounded by baskets brought in by the clubs for a fundraiser auction to benefit WVFRW.
