Flag waving – June 9

To those who have been able to catch the movie telling ‘the origin story of the greatest country in history’, it is abundantly clear why we must do all we can to Keep the Constitutional Republic our Founding Fathers and the American people of their times fought so hard for with heartbreaking sacrifices. Show your love for the country by proudly waving the flag with respect for what it stands for! We will pump up passers-by ahead of the June 27th celebration and the big parade day of 4th of July at the corner of Hwy 93 and First St, Tuesday June 9 and 23, 4 pm to 5:30 pm. Stand United! Extra flags will be available in case you don’t have one to bring with you. (Reminder, the nearby bank parking lot needs to be left for those doing their banking!)

If you didn’t catch the below movie on June 3rd, make sure to do so when the opportunity offers itself!

View trailer: YouTube

Revolutionary America tells the story of the American Founding, the greatest political achievement in history. Britain declared that Americans had no right to rule themselves. In response, our ancestors risked their “lives, fortunes and sacred honor” to fight the war of Independence.  This movie covers the Founding Fathers ‘darkest hours’ from the Declaration of Independence until the signing of the Constitution.

More flag waving! – June 11

Even as we prepare for a remarkable milestone in American history, celebrating the great nation that has been able to survive 250 years as a Constitutional Republic with freedom of religion, expression, and pursuit of happiness, and so much more, we must find ways to KEEP it. We must exercise our freedoms and not take them for granted. America is under attack, and we are at war against those who are not America First. The Thursday flag waving will be geared towards bringing awareness to the issues we are facing TODAY.

We’d love to invite everyone on the 2nd and 4th Thursday of each month, 4:30-6pm, to come join us in waving flags, signs, sharing smiles or come and just jump around being happy!  Place: sidewalk on Hwy 93 in front of First Interstate Bank. Sit in a chair holding a sign or flag. Bring support flags, signs, shirts and hats for ALL Law Enforcement, military, Trump, Veterans, Pro Life. Wear shirts and hats that express where you stand. All we ask is no profanity please. If you don’t have a sign or flag, we have extras you may borrow. Our purpose is to be proud of our country and what we stand for and to have Fun interacting with those driving by expressing that.

(Reminder: save the parking spots in the bank lot for their customers.)

Birthday Celebration June 27

The golf tournament is limited to the first 40 people who sign up by using the QR code on the flier, or by clicking ‘Welcome’ at the top of this page, and then ‘250th Birthday Golf Tournament’. When you sign up for the tournament, you will also pay for the tournament.  We attempted to make it as easy as possible for the people to sign up.  Please share this with as many people as you know so we are able to fill all 40 slots.  If you plan on having a team sign up (4 people) please sign up together on the site so we know to place you together for the tournament.
The birthday celebration is open to everyone who wants to join us to celebrate America’s Birthday.  Beware that parking is going to be limited so we recommend carpooling where possible.  We will have live music, food trucks, corn hole tournament, and more for everyone to enjoy.  We will also have merchandise for sale honoring the 250th birthday – hats, t-shirts, stickers, flags, etc.

In case you missed it:

Tyler Irwin instilled his listeners with memorable thoughts once again.

This time at the LCRW meeting June 1. Tyler described the feelings you experience in a race car in a very vivid way. An experience that actually mirrors life’s highs and lows. If you want to succeed as a race car driver, you must do everything to strive for a perfect run. LIFE is very much like that: a race worth running well. Just like racing, you must approach life with DISCIPLINE.

Tyler strives to set an example for children, just like a race car driver once set an example for him that helped him pursue his passion for running good races with focus on the details. Children are the FUTURE, a heritage from the Lord, Tyler says.

Tyler is the kind of example all children should have in their lives. Tyler’s principles are undisputably worth the sponsorship Lake County Republicans chose to support him with. Come see him race! Next Late Model race at the Super Oval off North Reservoir Road is on June 20th. Trials at 6, races starting at 7 pm.

Lake County Republicans welcomed primary candidates – Kurt Alme and Aaron Flint – at the Shoe in Polson on May 29th.

Please note how good they look in the shirts donated by Michael Thompson. The T-shirts are a fundraising effort for the Lake County Republicans organized by LCRW, the women’s club. Find an opportunity to buy your own at an event or meeting!

Candidates heeded our call to join us in Polson on May 26th

On May 4, Judge Dan Wilson visited with attendees of the LCRW meeting.

It became obvious, once again, that the Montana Supreme Court is using its power for judicial activism. A recent example is a ruling allowing people to change their gender on driver’s licenses or birth certificates regardless of their biological gender. That is erasing words of the 1972 constitution and breaks a cardinal rule: it is the People that have the right to make laws or changes to the constitution, not judges.

You must follow the Law as a judge. You do not CREATE it!

Common sense must prevail in Montana.

Great turnout for Charles Garner on March 13 and again on April 6! 31 attendees participated at the Republican Women’s meeting Monday.

Now it is up to us to disseminate the great information penned and spoken by this patriotic author! Minutes posted on the ‘Pachyderm Club’ page. Excerpt:

“The church has yielded – voices have been silenced.  The church must stand up
Charles’ third book is the cure – ‘ Called to Stand’
Every believer needs to put on the armor of God and stand up.  Lake County is on the battle line
We all must spread the word across Montana – this is our battleground
Friends must tell friends”
32 million who attend church monthly are not VOTING!?
________
The books are available on line, but you will have another opportunity to listen and learn, and buy your own copy at an affordable price to support the sharing of Christian values. Charles Garner will be back at the Republican Women’s meeting on April 6.

* * *

 

Plan on attending meetings if at all possible with your schedule. There is so much to know and learn. Your part in promoting what you learn could be as simple as telling your friends all about it!

Get involved!

Attend meetings to see how you can help. The wins we now celebrate can be attributed to people who put their hearts into the fight. There are so many ways YOU can contribute!

Local Action Equals National Impact. Stay in the Know!

(>>> General Michael Flynn)
