The Broomfield County Republicans were proud to host over 160 attendees at the event which included a red-carpet entrance, cocktail hour, and silent auction.  We were also honored to be joined by Colorado Secretary of State Scott Gessler, State Senator Vicki Marble, and Comedian Sam Adams.

We thank everyone who attended this year’s event, and we are already looking forward to next year!

This year, its all about the people and less about the politics. We all need a good old fashioned Lincoln Gala, to bring the light and energy back in the door. Since smiles are the most luminous thing on the planet, smiles, are the objective for 2013.

It’s not your typical Lincoln Dinner. It’s the “Can’t miss event of the year!” Be sure to join us for our Red Carpet reception, cocktails, great food, entertainment, music, dancing and silent auction with must have items. We’ve had 5 months to dry our tears, now it’s time to dust ourselves off, get back to livin’ and get our spunk back. We’re gonna chat, drink, laugh and dance with like-minded folks who are ready to start taking our country back in 2014. But for May 31, we’re keeping it light … letting loose and having fun. Grab your dancing shoes – let this be your excuse to go shopping for that gorgeous new evening gown you’ve been wanting to wear or that fabulous tux or great new suit.

Broomfield County Republicans Stand with Legislators Voting Against Gun Control Laws

February 20, 2013 Denver, CO - On Monday, the Colorado State House passed HB-1224, HB-1226, HB-1228, and HB-1229.  These bills were crafted as a reaction to the tragic mass shooting events that have occurred in Colorado as well as across the United States. 

The House passed these bills, all of which hurt the freedoms of the citizens of Broomfield and ensured that a prominent local employer will be looking to move out of Colorado as a result.  Our duly elected Representative Dianne Primavera voted “yea” on all 4 of these bills.

While the emotions and passion behind this reaction is understandable, the results of these bills are far more dangerous than enforcing the existing laws of the land.  The results are in fact this – the Colorado Legislature has decided, on the behalf of all Coloradoans, to exchange the freedom of the citizens of Broomfield to decide how they defend their families and property with a perception of increased safety through these bills.

This is a false premise. The reality is that these laws restrict the rights provided to all citizens under the 2^nd Amendment to the Constitution, and in no way deter those who choose to break the law, violate the rights of their victims, and commit these terrible acts of violence.

Another negative consequence of these bills will be felt by many families in Broomfield impacted by the decision of local companies to leave Colorado due to these restrictive laws.  Erie based Magpul Industries has indicate that they will leave Colorado, taking with them nearly 800 jobs.  This will hurt the local economy and re-enforce the perception that Colorado is not a pro-business, pro-growth state.

In stark contrast to these anti-freedom and anti-business positions, the Broomfield County Republicans stand with those legislators in the Colorado State House and Senate that oppose these laws and are making a stand for the freedoms and rights that we are truly entitled to in the United States.

Broomfield County Republicans elects brand new faces to party leadership

February 7, 2012 Broomfield, CO – The Broomfield County Republican’s held their elections for the 2013-2015 leadership. The current officer team, led by longtime Chairman Erich Feigel, is stepping down after four very successful years that established a strong base and opened the party to new fresh faces.

Taking Feigel’s place is Broomfield native and longtime liberty grassroots activist, Rick Fernandez.  Rick grew up in Broomfield, graduating from Broomfield High School in 1991.  Rick attended the University of Colorado, where he graduated in 1995 and returned to his hometown of Broomfield to raise his family.

“Broomfield is a vibrant community built on the values of self-reliance and hard work, where every person has it in their own hands to pursue their life’s ambitions.  These are the same freedom-based values that the Broomfield County Republicans represent, and we are proud to continue to bring that positive message to Broomfield.” says Fernandez.

Rounding out the officer leadership is 1st Vice Chair Mike Shelton, Councilman from Ward 2, replacing David Pigott, candidate for HD33 in 2012..  Tim Ziegler, a chef and political consultant and volunteer, is 2^nd Vice Chairman replacing Steve Larson.  And filling out the slate as Secretary is Kelly Lamb, a proud mother of three and active volunteer in the recent elections, replacing Sheryl Fernandez.

The committee also elected four bonus members – Tom Cave, David Pigott, Michele Haedrich, and David Jurcak.  Each of the bonus members are welcomed additions to the committee, bringing a wealth of experience and energy to the party.

Outgoing Chairman Erich Feigel wished the newly elected officers well in their leadership roles. “Our party relies almost entirely on dedicated volunteers who donate their time, treasure and energy Their continuing efforts are recognized and are greatly appreciated.”

New Chairman Rick Fernandez adds “I want to thank Erich Feigel and the outgoing officers for their leadership over the last 4 years.  They are leaving the Broomfield County Republican party in a much improved state from where it was.  We have some big shoes to fill, and we’ll work hard to build on the solid foundation that Erich and his team have put in place.”
