About Our Club Logo

The Board of Directors of Chico Evening Republican Women designed our club’s logo, and we are very happy with it, because it truly represents our area.  The logo has a likeness of an historic tree that grows in Upper Bidwell Park, the Hooker Oak.

We portray the tree in red to go along with the red, white, and blue colors of our logo.  There is a ribbon tied round the old oak tree, however, it is a patriotic colored ribbon, in a nod to the song, “Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Old Oak Tree”.

MEMBERSHIP APPLICATION

Chico Evening Republican Women – GSRW was founded in early 2022 in Chico, California. CERW members must be registered to vote as Republicans. We plan to support our county areas to educate and promote the Republican Party in our county and city.

Our meetings are the 4th Tuesday of the month and include a social time beginning at 5:30 PM, short business meeting at 6:00 PM, then dinner, with a featured speaker or speakers on various topics of interest to the CERW members. The speaker portion is meant to educate, inform, and inspire our members regarding various political events, upcoming state and federal bills, as well as informing our members about the direction of our community, region, state and federal governments.

During the 2026-2027 term we are focused on registering Republicans to vote, educating the public about issues of importance to Republicans, being supportive of our local Republican officials, and supporting conservative parents and children at local school board meetings.

In 2023 Chico Evening Republican Women – GSRW were one of 18 Founding Clubs in the new Golden State Republican Women (GSRW). GSRW is a new, statewide women’s alliance of independent clubs.
