Growth...

The Cherokee County Young Republicans is very sad to say that some of our members are graduating and moving on from the CCYR's. We say goodbye to good friends Ryan Alsup, Alice Lawson, Derrek McGowen, Dustin McGowen, Darrin Phelps, Brian D. Elkins. Without each of you the CCYR's would not have had the tremendous growth that we did. It was a a little table in a small restaurant that we got our start, and now nine months later are one of the most active Young Republican groups in the state of Oklahoma. It was nine months ago that we asked you if you would be willing to serve with us and work with us as we began pressing for the ideas of the G.O.P. among the younger voters in Cherokee County. We have done this and our efforts are now reaching beyond our county borders into the surrounding counties, the state, and now nationally, where we have formed friends that like us believe in the principles of the Republican party. Small government, Individual Responsibility, fiscal conservatism, and many other issues brought us together, but it is the friendships that we have made along the way that have kept us strong. As we traveled the state together, we got to know each other and we can easily say that many of you will go onto public office in the future, and it is with great honor that we will be walking the campaign trail with you. And for those of you who are activists, we will be knocking the doors with you as well! This spring ushers in a time of new growth and outreach, but please know the Cherokee County Young Republicans would not be the organization it is today without each of you. See you soon on the campaing trail.
With much admiration,
Cherokee County Young Republicans
