2/19/2010

The Lake County Republican Federation announces Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty as the Keynote Speaker for its 48th Annual Spring Gala to be held on Friday, April 16, 2010 at the Lincolnshire Marriott Resort. The cocktail reception begins at 5:30 p.m. and dinner at 7:00 p.m. Tickets are $100 per person and $1,000 for a table of ten. Additional sponsorship opportunities are also available.

Governor Tim Pawlenty is regarded as one of the nation's most innovative, energetic, reform-minded and accomplished governors. Now serving his second term as the 39th governor of Minnesota, Governor Pawlenty has brought increased accountability to state government, held the line on taxes, improved K-12 education standards and made Minnesota a leader in energy reform.

"Governor Pawlenty is a rising star in the Republican Party, and we are delighted to welcome him to Lake County, " said Federation President Sandy Stuart. "Like Illinois, Minnesota has faced massive budget deficits in past years, and he has managed to balance the budget three times without raising taxes. We look forward to hearing the Governor's insight as to how we can use the same Republican principles to produce similar results in Illinois."

The goal of the Lake County Republican Federation's Annual Spring Gala is to raise the funds necessary for a successful 2010 election campaign. Proceeds will be used towards grassroots organizing efforts, upgrading technology, maintaining Lake County Republican Headquarters, and providing staff support for the Lake County GOP.
