TAPROOT REPUBLICANS OF ILLINOIS-- OUTSTANDING: Pulido to speak at Sunday, August 17, TAPROOT picnic in Westmont - Dave Diersen

www.gopillinois.com (8/6/08 News Clips page)
(KOCAN PRESS RELEASE: Conservative activists from the DuPage County area will hold their annual picnic on Sunday, August 17, in Westmont. TAPROOT is proud to announce that our special guest is Rosanna Pulido, dynamic defender of US borders. In the past, Republicans like Joe Birkett, Jim Oberweis, Tom Roeser, Jim Nalepa, Patti Bellock, Bob Biggins, and John Cox “pressed the flesh” and addressed the crowd. Radio host and newspaper columnist Tom Roeser gave the key-note speech a few years ago. The Warrior Princess, herself, Teri O’Brien, regaled us with her commentary last year. The picnic will run from 2 pm to 5 pm, Sunday, August 17, at Twin Lakes Park in Westmont. It is on 55th Street between Fairview and Cass Avenues, at Williams St., in Westmont. TAPROOT will supply soft drinks and charcoal. Picnickers should bring their own meat, a dish share and extra chairs. Bring your friends. Bring your kids, they can play volley ball in the sand court. Contact: Dave 630-653-0462 or George 630-393-6401; www.taprootgop.org. Next TAPROOT meeting: September 20, 2008 (no breakfast meeting in August))
