We encourage you to come join us for an engaging weekend of networking with party leaders, attending helpful panels and workshops, and taking part in marquee guest speaker events and evening socials. If you're arriving early for Convention, the San Francisco Young Republicans have a Thursday night social planned at the Exploratorium on Pier 15! Use the LINK HERE if you would like to join fellow YRs for a welcome outing. On Friday night, former CRP Chairman and longtime friend of the club Shawn Steel will host the customary Cigar and Chocolate Social. This is always a great time, and a great networking opportunity as well with Republican leaders and activists of all ages, so we encourage you to come by and join us there. Our statewide federation, the California Young Republicans, also has two events set up for Saturday. The CYRF General Meeting will take place on Saturday at 10:15am, and we would encourage all YRs to join us as we discuss state business. Coffee and light breakfast will be provided. CYRF will also host a Saturday night Reception at 9pm. Our afterparty is always a marquee event at convention, and we always show that YRs are the life of the party. This year's theme is Studio 24/70s Disco, so we encourage you to bring your grooviest attire and join us for a special night with fellow YRs! We look forward to making a strong OCYR presence at convention, and we hope to see many of you up in the Bay!
