ALEXANDRIA, Va. – The National Federation of Republican Women (NFRW) has approved the charter of a new Republican women’s club in California.

Woodlake Valley Republican Women Federated was chartered on July 2 with 19 members. Barbara Hallmeyer of Woodlake, Calif., will lead the club during its first term. Club meetings are held the fourth Wednesday of the month.

“The NFRW is pleased to welcome this club into our nationwide network of grassroots leaders,” NFRW President Jody Rushton said. “We look forward to working with Barbara and club members to promote Republican principles and elect Republican candidates during this 2018 election cycle and beyond.”

Annual club dues are $35. These dues also cover membership in the NFRW and in the California Federation of Republican Women.

“Our goal is to educate and involve women of all ages, walks of life and backgrounds at the political table," Hallmeyer said. "We believe that by working together, we have a greater voice."
