We also appreciate the New Hanover County Republican Party for hosting us this year!  Also, we would like to issue a giant thank you to the staff at the North Carolina Republican Party for working so hard to make this happen.  These staffers work hard behind the scenes so that our party runs smoothly.  Thank them if you see them.

Your blogger is a veteran of over 20 state GOP conventions.  After the banquets conclude, the hospitality suites begin. Some hospitality suites run all day long on Saturday.   These free events often  include food and “adult” beverages, so these are not for the kiddies.

Usually the Young Republicans and the Federation of Republican Women host hospitality suites, along with all of the major candidates for public office in 2012.  These are great ways to informally meet friends from across the state and discuss major events, get to know one.
