Come socialize, network and master a new skill with fellow Republican women from around the Hamilton County area and beyond.

Lt. Eddie Moore with the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Department will teach a self-defense class. Come learn how to protect yourself from an attack and tips on how to avoid one.

HCFRW Members and residents of Viking Meadows can attend for free. The cost is $10 for non-members or non-residents.

Members are asked to bring an appetizer, snack or dessert to share. No alcohol is allowed, and do not wear high heels.

In addition to providing the community with valuable training for situations no one wants to face, HCFRW will use the event as an opportunity to raise awareness and collect donations for their RIGHT NOW campaign to help Hamilton County families in need.

Donations of toilet paper, tampons, maxi pads, toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap (soft or bar), shampoo and conditioner, laundry detergent, Q-tips, hairbrushes or combs, paper towels, dish soap, baby diapers and wipes are needed.
