The Republican Women’s Club of Lakeland, Federated was organized August 15, 1966 with 18 Charter Members. Our charter was received from the National Federation of Republican Women and the Florida Federation of Republican Women on August 11, 1975. Over the years, we are proud to say that our membership has consistently and steadily increased to well over 100 members and associate members, one of the largest in the State of Florida. Our strength is not just in numbers. It is in the power to make things happen. Elected officials in our county will tell you that our members make a huge difference at election time with our volunteer hours, support from our members and money. The affiliation with our club, the Florida New Federation of Republican Women, and the National Federation of Republican Women does not go unnoticed.
State Senator Paula Dockery, a candidate for the Senate President, is a huge supporter, who credits a large part of her election to office to this club. Cindy Ross (wife of Representative Dennis Ross) and a member of the Polk Community College Board is a valued member. Kelli Stargel, Candidate for State House serves on our board. We are also proud to have Kim McKeel, wife of State Representative Seth McKeel in our membership. Past President Lou McCraney currently serves as FNFRW Co-Chair for Caring for America. Past President Cathy Phillips previously served on the State Board. Linda Ivell, the Immediate Past President of the Club, serves as President of the Florida Federation of Republican Women and State Committeewoman for the RPOF. Marsha Faux-Shields, Chair of our Scholarship Committee, is Polk County’s highly popular Property Appraiser. Sissy Black, our Treasurer, served as the Treasurer of the Republican Party of Polk and chaired many of the county’s most profitable fundraisers!
The real value of this club rests not with these individuals, but in the dedication and hard work of all of our members.
