Following is some information about Virginia Boys State. At our March meeting, it was agreed that our committee would help publicize the scholarship efforts of the Louisa American Legion Post. We encourage all our members and the greater community to help fund scholarships for area youth to attend this valuable public service leadership experience. Please give generously.

"Our Louisa County American Legion Post 116 sponsors high school student(s) to participate each year in Virginia Boys State. Post 116 tries to send 3 young men to Boys State, but the cost is high for our small organization. We are seeking donations from local individuals and organizations to help with the expense. Each attendee costs Post 116 almost 300 dollars."

"On March 26, Post 116 will interview candidates recommended by Louisa County High School. Shortly after the interviews the Post must select its nominees and send the registration and tuition payments to Virginia Boys State. Your timely support of Virginia Boys State will help Post 116 decide how many young men it can sponsor."

"Anyone who is able to contribute is asked to send a check payable to American Legion Post 116. The Post 116 mailing address is Post Office Box 859 Mineral, Virginia 23117-0859."

Important Meeting Date

This is to give official written notice, in accord with the State Party Plan, that Louisa County Republican Committee Chairman Patrick Mullins has called a meeting of the Louisa County Republican Committee, to be held on Tuesday, January 26, 2010, at 7:00 pm in the banquet room at the rear of Roma’s Italian Restaurant in the Glen Marye Shopping Center on E. Main Street, Louisa. As is our custom, those wishing to eat and socialize with other members should plan to arrive at about 6:00 pm and order their food and drinks from the menu. We will welcome any registered voters of Louisa County to attend and if they wish to do so apply for membership in the Louisa County Republican Committee. However, only those who are committee members in good standing when the meeting is called to order will be permitted to vote on matters coming before the committee. While dues of $25 per member for calendar year 2010 are not yet past due, this would be a good opportunity to give your dues to the Committee Treasurer.

The business to come before the Louisa County Republican Committee is as follows:

To determine the method of selection of up to 280 delegates with 56 votes from Louisa County to a Seventh Congressional District Convention, scheduled to be held at 10:00 am on Saturday May 8 for the purpose of electing a District Committee Chairman. We are also to determine the date and time of the election of these delegates, and any pre-filing requirements and fees therefore. A District Convention will not be held if the current District Chairman is unopposed for election to that office, as determined by prefilings required to be completed by 5:00 pm Wednesday, February 3, 2010.

To determine the method of electing the County Committee Chairman, vice chairmen, secretary, treasurer, and the members of the unit committee for the next two years, along with the date and time of such election and any pre-filing requirements and fees therefor. To facilitate this process, a draft of an Official Call for a Mass Meeting will be distributed to and reviewed by the committee members at the meeting on January 26. This Call, with any amendments, will be authorized by majority vote of the Committee members present and officially issued by the County Chairman.

Such other business as may be appropriately brought before the Committee.

For those wishing to consult the State Party Plan for more information as to the requirements for these determinations and election processes, the Plan as amended is on the web site at www.rpv.org.

By Direction of Chairman Patrick Mullins.
