Anyone who has been involved in a local political campaign knows Rex Bohn. Hes probably donemore to help candidates get elected than any person in this room. Hes the King of the Live Auctioand his infectious enthusiasm draws people in. He knows everyone and his good-natured ribbing

delights the crowd.

Try going to lunch with Rex, and youll be treated to a steady stream of people coming up to talk him. Hes a human dynamo with deep roots in the community and was a mover and shaker longbefore he ran for political office. His tireless work on local campaigns and local projects ser ved himwell when he finally, and unexpectedly, decided to throw his own hat into the political ring.

Rexs community involvements are well known - from his leadership in Special Olympics to theFounding President of the Cutten Ridgewood School Foundation. He is the President and FoundinBoard Member of the Field Committee Inc., otherwise known as the Redwood Field Complex or thBohn Yard. Rex has raised over 8 million dollars for non-profits and schools through his involvemin auctions and fund raising.

Rexs number one passion in community service is its youth. Rex has coached over forty differentathletic teams in basketball, baseball and soccer over the last 40 years. He realizes that whether athletic, performing arts, 4-H or FFA, kids involved in activities outside their normal school schedare better prepared for the challenges they will face in the future. Rex recognizes that valuesinstalled through these extra-curricular activities are invaluable to our youth and our community

So whats it like now that hes serving as our County Supervisor? And whats up with the GeneralPlan? The budget? What does he see on the horizon? Find out - over lunch, without interruptionsour meeting on June 19th.

PresidentsMessage

I dont think any of us could have predicted just how busy this month was going to be for manyof us. With elections on June 1, many of our members have been out there supportingcandidates with similar leanings with phone calls, door knocking, etc. while others of ushosted and attended our CFRW Northern Division Conference May 16-18th. Yes, hosted. Eachregion is required to host a division conference, and it was our turn. It was a first for many ofus, but the bottom line is we worked hard, learned a great deal, and had fun working with somany like-minded, supportive leaders from other divisions!

Leave it to the CFRW! They produce some of the most informative conference workshopsaround, and these were no exception. On Friday, the 16th, while, as President, I attended theExecutive Board meeting and also the Regional Director meeting, Debbie, Mary, and othersfrom CFRW busied themselves with arranging Sun Valley Bulb Farm flowers, and filling 150conference bags with goodies the various clubs from our greater region brought.

Saturday we were able to attend all speakers and workshops and were also able to sell ourcookbooks to the tune of $215.00. Im not sure where to begin in terms of sharing theinformation we learned. I think the best word to describe the entire theme of the conference isempowerment. Deborah Wilder, GOP Chair, Nevada County, spoke on building a coalition ofindividuals starting with our club and then reaching out to like-minded organizations anddevelop a list of walkers and talkers; make a concerted effort to recruit new members and findtasks for them, and other significant strategies for winning elections. Shirley Hussar, a political

consultant and all-around political dynamo, challenged us to take off the blinders that limitour vision of who we are and can be: a political group who are smart, powerful, and knowl-edgeable with strategies for choosing candidates and seeing them on to victory. During thesecond workshop portion of her presentation Debbie and I were questioned on how well weknow the leaders of our communities and how well we knew our Constitution, and consistent-ly reiterated the fact that we needed to be deeply knowledgeable of it if we plan to defend it.The right knowledge is power.

Referenced also in these strategies was the need for some level of expertise in technology, towhich our own Rose Welsh has offered to lead us through that learning process at one of ourluncheons. I dont know anything either, so thats no excuse for you not to try. Mary Dowdattended an afternoon workshop on Publicity and these technology strategies were alsoemphasized. So like it or not ladies, we need to come of age. We cannot and will not lead

from behind. Our place is right there at the forefront of the political battles. Please stronglyconsider attending our next CFRW Northern Division Conference.

Last, but not least, at our dinner on Saturday evening we were treated to visiting candidateswho sat at our tables, answered our questions, shared their visions for a new California, andthen moved on to the next table. I must say we have some exceptional candidates running foroffice.

Im proud to announce that Rex Bohn will be our speaker at our June 19th luncheon.
