From the Rockingham Republican Party:
Rockingham County Republican Party plans family picnic on the grounds of Chinqua Penn PlantationMembers, guests and their families are invited to this pot-luck picnic
REIDSVILLE - Republican Congresswoman Virginia Foxx of the 5th District and Republican candidate for the 13th Congressional District, former state Sen. Hugh Webster of Yanceyville, will be in attendance at the Rockingham County Republican Party’s pot luck picnic to be held at 5pm Sept. 6 on the beautiful grounds of Chinqua Penn Plantation just outside of Reidsville.
Local Republican state Sen. Phil Berger and Rep. Bryan Holloway will be on hand to greet constituents.
The Rockingham GOP is seeking to build community among its diverse membership by offering this relaxed time of food and fellowship in a family friendly setting.
The local GOP is extending invitations to Republican candidates from across the state. Republican candidates for county commissioner will be in attendance along with representatives from the McCain, McCrory and Dole campaigns.
As a pot luck dinner, attendees are asked to bring food to share with others. Local Republican women's groups will provide tea and lemonade and the party will provide soft drinks, ice and tableware.
All Republicans and potential party members and their families are encouraged to attend. If you are certain of your attendance, please help us plan for this event by emailing info@rockgop.com with the number from your family or calling Tom Schoolfied, local party vice-chairman, at 336-634-0713. RSVP is not required but helpful for planning purposes.
The party asks for a small cash contribution at the picnic to help offset facility rental fees. Those attending the picnic are free to stroll the grounds of Chinqua Penn. House tours are available during normal business hours.

I know this may sound old fashion but I love the idea for this group bringing a picnic to congress. This is a great way to bring the messages to the people. I wish our state would look at this type of outlet.
