June 2024
We had a productive meeting, starting with a prayer by Linette and the Pledge of Allegiance led by Larry. The minutes from the May 23, 2024, meeting were approved without corrections, thanks to motions by Jerry and Lynn.
We successfully voted on two amendments to the bylaws. Amendment 1 passed unanimously, while Amendment 2 was removed due to conflicts with GOP Executive Committee bylaws.
During the local campaigns report, it was noted that the committee won't endorse candidates as a group, but individuals can support candidates. Roger highlighted the importance of filling Precinct Delegate vacancies via a Write-In Vote.
We discussed county signage plans, with additional funds approved for six signs. The email list merging project is ongoing, with future communications moving to the Wix platform.
For fundraising, Mary needs volunteers for the Cass County Fair (July 27-August 4), where we'll host a voter registration drive. Lisa is organizing an online auction to support our efforts.
In township reports, Lynn mentioned the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians' sewer line project, and Karen reported on Porter Township's financial savings. Concerns were raised about infrastructure and school board issues, including a $42 million millage proposal in Cassopolis.
Roger and Pastor Stacey shared their experience meeting legislators in Lansing, and Lynn praised the County Road Commission's support after a recent tornado.
Finally, we discussed the possibility of hosting a local candidates' debate. A committee was formed to plan this event, aiming to include food, a meet and greet, and a Q&A session.
The meeting adjourned at 8:22 PM.
Stay tuned for updates and thank you for your continued support of our conservative values and efforts in Cass County!

As the action arm of the County GOP, members of the County Delegate Committee have been busy identifying Precinct Delegate vacancies, implementing recruitment plans, attending local government meetings, reaching out to county residents, and basically getting the word out that we are the party of liberty and integrity!
We started the April meeting with a guest speaker from the civil defense organization called the Michigan Home Guard. The organization is comprised of volunteers willing to share their expertise with various aspects of preparedness including disaster preparation, first aid, communication methods, neighborhood security, firearm training, and search and rescue techniques.
