(COLUMBUS, OH) During Sunday’s State Board Meeting of the Ohio College Republican Federation, the Ohio Wesleyan University College Republicans won a competitive bidding process to host the 2010 OCRF Convention in Delaware from Friday, April 23, through Sunday, April 25.  “We are extremely excited to be hosting the premier gathering of conservative collegiate leaders in Ohio,” stated Trevor Hawley, President of the Ohio Wesleyan University College Republicans.

“This decision by our State Board to reward the hard work and phenomenal results of a newly re-founded College Republican chapter is one that illustrates the recent growth of our organization across the state.  Several of our leading chapters put together outstanding bids, and while we would have been excited about any of them as hosts, the city of Delaware and the Ohio Wesleyan University will be a great atmosphere to officially kick off our efforts to elect strong Republicans in 2010.  The Delaware County Republican Party has long been a leading organization in Ohio politics, and their support for the College Republicans at Ohio Wesleyan University is a big reason for their success,” said OCRF Chairman Jonathon Snyder.

The annual convention of the Ohio College Republican Federation serves as a capstone of the year for the OCRF, and is the beginning of the next year with the election of a new Executive Board that serves to lead Ohio’s College Republicans.  The 2010 Convention will include a wide array prominent Republicans, including many of the strong candidates being fielded in Ohio, who will address the numerous College Republicans gathered there.  Portions of the 2010 Convention will be open to the public, and student registration is just $10 per attendee.  Public ticket prices will be announced in the coming days, and any individuals or organizations interested in securing limited sponsorship space at the 2010 Convention should contact the OCRF directly.

The Ohio College Republican Federation (OCRF) is the statewide body of all College Republican chapters across Ohio. Currently giving support and aid to over 45 chapters, the OCRF brings together nearly 10,000 members throughout Ohio.  The OCRF provides crucial grassroots support to Republican campaigns and organizations, serving as the preeminent Republican youth organization in the state.
