The June meeting of the TFA Shelby County Chapter will be Thursday, June 17th at 7 PM at RangeUSA in Bartlett. The meeting will be in the classroom next to the Liberty Grille.

Kemp Conrad, the Chairman of the , will be our speaker this month. He is the Vice-President of Corporate Advisory Services for the Trammell Crow Company, and very civically involved. Find out more . I'm also pleased to say that Kemp is a member of the TFA.

I've asked Kemp to share his thoughts on why the upcoming elections are so important, and to tell us what kind of strategies will work best in the races of our RKBA friendly legislators and challengers. Keep in mind that in the last Presidential election, the voter turnout of Republicans in the Memphis suburbs of Germantown, Collierville, and Bartlett averaged somewhere between 10 to 20 percent of eligible voters.

This becomes even more important when a candidate runs as a conservative, wins the election, gets into office, and changes into a moderate.

So, as you can tell, a good time will be had by all, with probably plenty of Q&A. Come on out Thursday the 17th and bring a friend.

See you there.

David Waldrip, Director
Shelby County Chapter
