With the current direction that the Congress and the White House is taking this country, Denise Beall and a handful of other like minded women felt strongly that they could not sit by without becoming involved so a charter club of the Georgia Federation of Republican Women was born in Oconee County a few months ago. The call themselves the Oconee Regional Republican Women or ORRW.<br /> <br /> <b>Quote:</b> 'I voted, paid my dues and donated money to political campaigns and I thought I was doing all that was needed or required of me. But now, I know I can do more, I must do more and I must help others get involved in the political process.' - Denise Beall, President. 2010-02-12T22:40:50-04:00
