Serving The Community
The Mountain Republicans Club has been part of this community for many years, working tirelessly to make it a better place.
United By A Common Goal
The Mountain Republicans Club knows the value of being connected. That's why we're working to organize. Help us help you.
Get Involved
The Mountain Republicans Club can't accomplish our goals without your help. Word-of-mouth, bringing friends, and donating are all ways of helping us achieve our goals together.
You're Invited to Join Us
We welcome you to our active, friendly and involved Republicans Club in the foothills of the Rockies.
We strive to inform and involve our members in the political process as well as educating ourselves on topics and issues pertinent to our families, our state and our country.
Many of our members support education reform by attending and speaking at Jefferson County School Board meetings. As 2024 is an important election year, we invite Republican candidates as well as speakers on ballot issues to our monthly meetings so our members are well informed. We encourage each other to become involved in the election process by volunteering at Jefferson County Elections and/or Republican headquarters, or on a campaign.
We want to grow our Club to help more people know how they can become involved to save our Republic. We warmly invite you and your friends to attend one of our meetings as a first step. Please contact any of our MRC officers with questions. We look forward to meeting you!
