Jim Ryan to Headline Woodford GOP
Lincoln-Reagan Day Dinner February 24
Attorney General Jim Ryan will be the keynote speaker at the annual
Lincoln-Reagan Day dinner of the Woodford County Republican Central Committee on
February 24. Ryan will speak following the dinner. County, State, and regional
office holders and candidates will also attend.
The dinner will begin at 6:00 p.m. in the assembly hall of St. Mary's School in
Metamora. Tickets are now on sale for $15.00 per person and may be obtained from
Woodford County Republican precinct committeemen and office holders. The
Lincoln-Reagan Day dinner serves as a primary source of operating funds for the
Central Committee and for the Eureka College Young Republicans.
This will be the first year for the event under its new name. At last year's
dinner, Woodford County Republicans voted to honor President Ronald Reagan's
contributions to the Nation and to Woodford County by adding his name to the
annual dinner event. President Reagan attended Eureka College and was well known
throughout the community in his early days. They are also encouraging other
county Republican organizations to do the same.
