Our Story
Discover how the Rochester Area Republican Club has become a pivotal force in fostering Republican values and engaging the community in meaningful political dialogue since its inception in 2011.
Our History
In April 2011, the Rochester Area Republican Club (RARC) was
formed. A group of interested Republicans met informally at Panera
Restaurant located at Walton and Livernois. This was the result of the
Rochester Republican Women’s Club decision to disband.
The club founders recognized there was a need to have a Republican Club in the Greater Rochester/Rochester Hills area with a membership open to all and interested in supporting the Republican principles. The Board was formed with a President, Secretary and Treasurer.
Now, 12 years later, RARC is a strong and influential organization in the local community meeting the needs and concerns of our Republican Party.
