Georgia Presidents Team vice president is guest speaker at March Towns/Union County Presidents Team meeting

The March meeting of the Towns/Union County Presidents Team was held Monday March 12, 2017, at Cabin Coffee located on the Blairsville Square.

Following the invocation, Deb Curlette asked everyone to join in the recitation the Pledge of Allegiance. Pat Thibodeaux provided an Education Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (ESPLOST) update. Next, a Greet and Grow session was held. All members introduced themselves, and each new member received a special Presidents
Team button. Members who attended the “Let Trump Be Trump” event in Marietta shared the highlights of our exciting evening with guest speakers Corey Lewendowski and David Bosse.

The monthly activity was an event called “Build It and They Will Come Legally,” a post card campaign, which was sent to Republican members of Congress. Members addressed and mailed 200 postcards.

Union County Board of Education candidate Joan Anderson spoke to the Presidents Team and answered member’s questions.

The highlight of the meeting was a presentation by Claire Harrison, vice president and founding member of the Georgia Presidents Team (GA PT). Claire’s enthusiasm and support inspired us to form our Towns/Union County Presidents Team! Claire was joined by David Brandenburg, editor of the GA PT Newsletter.

The Towns/Union County Presidents Team has members from Fannin, Towns, and Union
counties. We invite interested individuals to join us at our meetings. Additional information
