The Severna Park Republican Women's Club also referred to as the SPRWC is a group of women who share the same political beliefs and enjoy meeting to promote the principals of conservative government. Our purpose is to foster and encourage loyalty to the Republican Party and its ideals. We collect, and report on information concerning our government, our community and their political interests. We support local, State, and National Republican organizations. We are dedicated to the election and support of Republican candidates in our government. We are particularly interested in increasing the number of women registered as Republicans and supporting Republican women candidates.

   Our club was founded in 1964 when Marjorie Holt, Betty Edy, and Sue Litty, gathered together the first 10 initial members chartered with The National Federation of Republican Women. One of our founding members, Marjorie Holt, who is a current member to this day, was elected to the ninety-third congress and to the six succeeding Congresses (Jan 3, 1973 through Jan 3, 1987). She is the first woman from the State of Maryland to be elected to the U.S.Congress, and continues to be a guiding voice in the leadership of our club.

Currently we have 100 members who hold full membership, and 23 Associate members, which make us one of the largest clubs in the state and growing every day!

The Republican Party is the party of Abraham Lincoln, the party which opposed slavery, the party which fought for the right of women to vote.  We are a party whose timeless ideals hold true in the 21st Century as they did in the 19th.

I'm a Republican Because...

• I BELIEVE the strength of our nation lies with the individual and that each person's dignity, freedom, ability and responsibility must be honored.
• I BELIEVE in equal rights, equal justice and equal opportunity for all, regardless of race, creed, sex, age or disability.
• I BELIEVE free enterprise and encouraging individual initiative have brought this nation opportunity, economic growth and prosperity.
• I BELIEVE government must practice fiscal responsibility and allow individuals to keep more of the money they earn.
• I BELIEVE the proper role of government is to provide for the people only those critical functions that cannot be performed by individuals or private organizations, and that the best government is that which governs least.
• I BELIEVE the most effective, responsible and responsive government is government closest to the people.
• I BELIEVE Americans must retain the principles that have made us strong while developing new and innovative ideas to meet the challenges of changing times.
• I BELIEVE Americans value and should preserve our national strength and pride while working to extend peace, freedom and human rights throughout the world.
• FINALLY, I believe the Republican Party is the best vehicle for translating these ideals into positive and successful principles of government.
