​On April 16, 1971, Betty Jo Neils, Vice Chair of the Washington State Republican Party and Advisor to the Washington Federation of Republican Women, invited twelve friends to meet. These twelve women founded the Lakewood Republican
Women’s Club.

At one time our membership held the honor as one of the largest clubs in the Washington Federation of Republican Women. In 2014, Lakewood Republican Women Club’s membership had over 130 members. Nationally, we are over 65,000 strong!

In 2022, the club changed its name to South Puget Sound Republican Women to encompass the demographic area where our members reside and serve as volunteers to support and help elect Republican candidates.
