Republicans from across Bastrop County and throughout Central Texas gathered together Saturday evening, September 24th, 2022 at the Bastrop Convention & Exhibit Center for an evening of camaraderie, competitive auction bidding and lively political conversation. Following the opening ceremonies Bastrop County Chair Curtis Courtney introduced all Federal, State, County and Precinct elected officials present. The brand new “Bob and Sue Long Lifetime Achievement Award” created in their honor, was presented to Bob and Sue Long by former County Chair Albert Ellison, for recognition of their forty plus years of commitment and contribution in establishing the Republican Party in Bastrop County. Without the efforts of Bob and Sue Long, there would not be a Republican Party in Bastrop County.
County Chair Curtis Courtney presented framed 1800’s vintage Bastrop County maps to Texas Representative John Cyrier HD-17 and to Bastrop County Judge Paul Pape for their years of dedication, commitment and service to Bastrop County. Master of Ceremonies, Representative Cyrier introduced Guest Speakers Tx Senator Dr. Charles Schwertner SD-5, U.S. Congressman Michael McCaul CD-10 who provided commentary on the workings of Texas Legislature and our National focus in Washington DC. The introduction of Keynote Speaker Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick brought the crowd to their feet for a standing ovation and much applause as he spoke of travels throughout the state, the importance of Rural Texas’ vote, and what is required to keep Texas Red.
