John,

After conducting an email survey and tabulating results of Virginia Republicans who attended our RPV Advances over the last three years, we have determined that we will host the 37th Annual Donald W. Huffman RPV Advance on the weekend of December 4-6 at The Homestead Resort in Hot Springs, VA. Accordingly, please mark your calendars for a fun-filled and productive weekend in southwest Virginia at a premier resort that knows how to do it up right during the Christmas and holiday seasons!

The majority of respondents wished to move forward with a traditional RPV Advance, a result that aligned with what I and members of the State Central Committee (SCC) Executive Committee have heard during our travels across Virginia and our 11 Congressional Districts in recent months. During the unusual circumstances of the current COVID-19 environment, The Homestead Resort has cooperated with us in unprecedented ways by waiving traditional minimums for the number of attendees, meals, and lodging rooms, which greatly minimizes our financial risk during this period of unpredictability. Additionally, The Homestead staff is working with us to employ, as a number of you requested in your survey responses, common-sense social distancing and hygiene precautions that respect the current COVID-19 environment.

Hosting this year’s RPV Advance at The Homestead Resort is an opportune time for us to reflect on the results of the 2020 federal elections and position us for the all-important state and local elections where we will elect a new Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General, and 100 members of the Virginia House of Delegates. I and the newly-seated SCC are committed to achieving electoral victories in 2021, and we surely need the presence and vision of our grassroots Republican leaders from across Virginia—all of you—to make that happen.

In a nutshell, our weekend in Hot Springs will consist of hospitality suites, working meals, general session meetings, breakout sessions, and the inaugural meeting of our newly-seated State Central Committee (the governing body of RPV), where we will tackle an agenda of meaty issues that will set the stage for the next four years.

The RPV Committee on Arrangements, which is tasked with the planning and execution of the 2020 RPV Advance, is hard at work and has already met on multiple occasions to craft an agenda for our annual get-together. This year’s Advance will include many of the traditional events that you’ve come to know over the years, but the committee is also looking at a number of innovations that we believe will make your presence in Hot Springs productive and worthwhile.

You may consider this notification to be the first of many communications that we will share with you as we move closer to December and the 2020 RPV Advance. In the near future, we will roll out a page on the RPV website and populate it with information on a regular basis as we firm up details of the Advance.

As I approach two months as RPV Chair, I want you to know how much I have valued this opportunity to serve all of you and our great Republican Party of Virginia. I look forward to great successes in the years ahead because of the dedicated and focused work of our grassroots Republicans who do the hard work of winning elections across our Commonwealth. Since my election on August 15th, I have put nearly 5,000 miles on my car visiting local units and events hosted by the Trump 2020 Victory Team and by our candidates for the U.S. Senate and House. During that time, I have been truly amazed by the devotion of Virginia Republicans to the principles of our party and the urgent necessity of electing Republicans to office up and down the ticket.

In that spirit, I and Team RPV highly value your views, the work you have done throughout 2020, and the epic work that you will do in 2021 to elect Republicans to all three offices in the Executive Branch of state government and to the Virginia House of Delegates. The 2020 RPV Advance will be a critical first step in that journey to electoral successes, and I and your SCC look forward to welcoming you to Hot Springs on the weekend of December 4-6, 2020!

Fellow Virginia Republicans, LET’S FIGHT AND WIN AGAIN!

Best regards,

Richard L. Anderson
