If you missed the I-4 Women Roar event on Saturday Jan 21, 2012, you missed an exciting, inspiring day!! The Event was hosted by NORWF, along with the Winter Park Republican Women’s Club Federated. This was a first of a kind event, and the largest ever hosted by our Club. The event Co-chairs, Sharon Rousey, from NORWF and Susan Burrow from WPRWF, did a truly outstanding and amazing job of bringing together Womens clubs, Tea party organizations and conservative clubs from all over Central Florida, to show what we can accomplish when we all work together!! The event actually sold out, as we had plenty of people showing up at the door!!

Special speakers included Sharon Day, RNC Co-chair, Cindy Graves, President of FFRW and a very special appearance by Congresswoman Sandy Adams, who flew in from Washington just for this event!! All three women gave rousing speeches that ignited the crowd of almost 200 women and men. These three women are true patriots who have dedicated themselves to defeating Obama and the Liberal Socialist agenda he and his minions are determined to set for this Nation. We can all take a lesson from these three courageous women.

Other speakers included Blaize Ignoglia, RPOF vice-chair, Lew Oliver, OCREC chair and Al Schwarz, SCREC chair. Each of the Presidential candidates (except Ron Paul) was represented by campaign surrogates who were allowed to speak for up to 5 minutes each. Other local candidates and organizations purchased display tables. And there was a spectacular array of gift baskets and Silent Auction items available for raffle and bid.

This was indeed a day to remember and definitely was a GREAT way to kick off the Campaign 2012 season. As I write this, the Florida Presidential Primary in only days away, and each of us has a very difficult decision ahead of us. We cannot let the liberal media set our agendas for us. Listen to the candidates, visit their websites, like them on facebook, talk to their supporters. I-4 Women Roar showed us that, as women, we ARE empowered and MUST do all we can to work together to save this beloved Nation of ours!! We are women of ACTION and we are truly making a difference!!
