The following photos are from the Spring Board Meeting of the National Federation of Republican Women in New Orleans, March 15 – 17, 2012. Republican women from clubs all over the country who attended this meeting were treated to wonderful speakers and very informative workshops. One of our workshop speakers, Anita Moncrief, is a former dedicated Democrat who worked for ACORN. When she discovered the corruption in ACORN, she became a political activist trying to get the truth out about this organization. In the weeks ahead, I will be giving more information about Anita as she is now a blogger and has her own website.
Since this three-day meeting coincided with St Patrick’s Day on the 17th, I’ve included photos of the St. Patrick’s Day celebrations in the French Quarter which as you will see, was a lot of fun. Hope you enjoy the photos and join us for our next Federation meeting which will be in Louisville, Kentucky in September, 2012. Nancy
