Presidents Message

Welcome to our website! We thank you for taking the time to give us a look. I have commented in the past how it is tough to be a republican in Chicago, but now I say it is an exciting time to be a republican in Chicago! Republicans in Illinois have opportunities in 2010 to win back spots on the local, state and national levels, and everyone I talk to is looking forward to helping out as much as they can. CRWN is proud to be a part of the reason there is an expanded presence of active republicans here, and we will continue our efforts to increase those numbers leading up to the next election.

I truly enjoy being part of this organization and meeting so many new people. I am thrilled that we are able to bring so many republicans together in Chicago who have helped the party in so many different ways. Some help the candidates themselves, some help their committeeman, and some help the local and state republican parties. One of our goals is to ensure that our members and other Chicago area republicans know how to get involved and have a chance to meet candidates in the elections where Chicagoans can vote.

Some other groups have become more active in Chicago as well, and it is great to see so many more republicans interested in participating in the political process! Everyone has an opportunity to help at whatever level they choose. They can volunteer their time and/or contribute to campaigns. Grass roots volunteerism and money are both important in order to win an election!

I look forward to seeing many of you at our events and also at other republican events in Chicago. We look forward to working with the other organizations to help bring republicans together to make a difference right here in Chicago! It will take a lot of work, but I am confident that many of you will do your part.

Sincerely,

 

Kathleen A. Thomas
