Welcome to the Brown County Area Republicans Homepage

Brown County Area Republican Women have honored 5 members with the 2nd annual Donna Fischer Award.  Years ago, Donna Fischer spoke to Heidi Engelhart about starting a Republican Women’s group in Aberdeen.  At the time Heidi was raising small children and was unable to help but years later was able to get a club going when those children were grown.  Donna is now in a nursing home in Aberdeen, but was able to attend the BCARW meetings the first year that BCARW was a club.  When Donna went into the nursing home her husband Wayne, who still attends the meetings and is an associate member, gave the club Donna’s Republican pins.  Those pins were used our first year as awards for those who have stepped up and help the club move forward.  We thank Donna and Wayne for all their support that they give to Brown County Area Republican Women.   BCARW had the opportunity to present the Tuttle Twins books to several different school this fall.  In December we had the privilege of having Jeff Clark who is the Tulare-Hitchcock School District Superintendent attend our club meeting and presented him with a set of books.     In January we had Rich and Penny Sattgast at our meeting.  Rich was our speaker and he spoke on his time serving our country in the military along with his father and grandfather’s service time.  Rich has a wonderful family history with his grandfather serving in WWll and being part of the Monument Men, his father right after WWll, and Rich serving during the Gulf War and his time in Berlin.  We are thankful to Rich for his service to our country and being so willing to share with us what he saw with serving so close to a communist country.  The United States of America has so much to be thankful for with so many men and women willing to serve our county.  Penny gave a update on SDFRW and future event, plans and goals.
