Dawn Masters moved to Colorado from Wisconsin in January of 1997, the day the Packers won the Super Bowl. (They lost to the Broncos the following year).  Dawn was raised in a conservative Christian Republican house-hold, but she developed an interest in politics late in life when she started paying attention to her rising taxes under Obama. Dawn and her husband, Bret, became weekend residents of Summit County in 2001 to enjoy weekend skiing and avoid weekend traffic while having a nice place to stay and have their friends come to visit.  The whole family became full-time residents in 2017 so their son, Gavin, could participate in the Team Summit Academic Athlete program.  Her son is now an avid whitewater kayaker,and the whole family has loved traveling the state to many beautiful places and cute towns to support Gavin's kayaking. Dawn joined the Summit County Republican Women to make friends with like-minded women in the county. She is enjoying learning more about the political system through her participation as a precinct chair and Summit County Delegate in addition to attending local Summit County Republican Women and GOP meetings when her work schedule allows. 

Judi, her husband and son moved to Colorado in 2018 after their son's high school graduation.  Jerry is enjoying skiing and biking depending on the time of year. Judi is working full time and enjoys all the concerts and festivals that the area has to offer.  Judi got involved with the Summit County Women's group to seek out like-minded women who share the same values and views. So having been life-long conservatives and having lived in the very small section of Republicans in New Jersey - we totally get politics in Summit County!! We are looking forward to getting more and more involved with the GOP and the Summit County Women's group.
