What a wonderful weekend in Lake Havasu City! Started Saturday off right, with a well-attended meeting of the Lake Havasu Republican Forum. BHC Attorney Rick Williams, candidate for Mohave County Superior Court Judge spoke about his work experience and qualifications as a candidate. Dana Hlavac, candidate for the same position spoke at the previous meeting.
Saturday afternoon, Frank & I unexpectedly attended a going away party for members of our church that are moving out-0f-state to be nearer to grandkids (understandable) and in the process we met some new neighbors. What a delight to know that just a few streets over are some great folks who just happen to attend the same church we do and share our love for community and fellowship! While we say goodbye to our friends Randy and Jessica we say hello to our new friends and neighbors Joyce and Cody!
Later on that same evening we attended a smashing dinner hosted by the H***l's~tireless Republicans who opened up their beautiful home to Lake Havasu Precinct Committee people so that we could have the opportunity to see and say hello to one another in a relaxed atmosphere. The weather was perfect (near 80's) as we dined under the stars, enjoying the delicious dinner (loved the Thai Vegetable Salad) and decadent desserts so tempting and abundant. DH energized the crowd as he spoke, urging us to continue to fight for our precious republican platform and rally behind the republican nominee. Senator Gould echoed these sentiments.
Sunday morning the winds kicked up and the "Community Celebration" church service, tail gate party and BBQ that was to be held in a large tent at the Sweetwater property had to be moved at the last minute back to the church. As the tent sides flapped and folding chairs toppled, the local firefighters declared the tent unsafe. What a scramble! Phone calls and text messages flew and as the news spread the Calvary Baptist church and parking lot filled to capacity. We did celebrate as we listened and learned how the various outreach programs have impacted the community by feeding the hungry, sheltering the homeless, and reaching countless individuals through CBC's participation in various Main Street events. After the jam-packed service the crowd lined up for a bountiful buffet of pizza, sandwiches, nachos, an assortment of homemade chilis, hotdogs and hamburgers. What a smorgasbord! As the day progressed, my great friend Bonnie (Hi Bonnie!) collected signatures for my re-election campaign, continuing to stun me with her grace and determination!
F&I are back now in Phoenix, refreshed and renewed because of our wonderful community and all who make Lake Havasu City a great place to call home!
