We had a great crowd at Poor Richards for our first Republican Social, and we basically took over the lower area. Notable attendees were: Sen. Lee Hawkins, Rep. Carl Rogers, Rep. Doug Collins, Comm. Billy Powell, Comm. Bobby Banks, Nate Morris (school board Post 4), DA Lee Darragh, and Judge Patti Cornett (probate court). Candidates JC Smith (clerk of court) Dan Sammons (probate judge) and Chris Masters (County Commission Post 2) also attended. Marshall Dick Mecum (former Hall County Sheriff and the first elected Republican in Hall County) was there too. Sheriff Steve Cronic sent his regrets due to a scheduling conflict. Several members of the Executive Committee were present as well: Tommy Sandoval, Harold Nichols, Kim Hunter, Jim Pilgrim, Joe Hoopaugh, and Chris Yardley.
Thanks to Kim Hunter for reserving the venue for the gathering, Chris Masters for activating the “phone tree” to let people know about the event (his last official act as First Vice Chair because he had to resign to run for County Commission), and Robin Lambert for sending out a reminder email!
