Greater Indianapolis Republican Women's Club (GIRWC)

Today, GIRWC President Becky Tyler Bechtel attended the solemn 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony at the Indiana 9/11 Memorial in downtown Indianapolis. Standing before the two 11,000-pound steel beams brought to Indiana from the World Trade Center, we are reminded of the lives lost, the heroes who answered the call, and the enduring strength of our nation.

We will never forget.

On September 11, 2001, our nation changed forever. Today, the Greater Indianapolis Republican Women’s Club pauses to honor and remember the 2,977 innocent lives lost during the tragic events at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and in Shanksville, Pennsylvania.

We honor the extraordinary courage of our first responders—the firefighters, police officers, EMTs, and service members—who ran toward danger to save others. Their selflessness defines the true spirit of American heroism and resilience.

Twenty-five years later, we reaffirm our promise: We Will Never Forget. May we continue to stand united in remembrance, strength, and gratitude for the freedom we hold dear. 🇺🇸

This Labor Day, the Greater Indianapolis Republican Women’s Club celebrates the hard work, grit, and innovation of American workers across Central Indiana and beyond.

From small business owners and skilled tradespeople to healthcare workers and educators, the dedication of our workforce builds strong communities, drives our local economy, and keeps the American Dream alive. Today, we honor the hardworking men and women who put in the effort day in and day out to make our city and state a better place to live, work, and raise a family.

We hope you and your family enjoy a restful and safe holiday weekend!

We’re proud, we’re honored, we’re all the feelings. Can you believe Marion County is full of so much talent? We can.

Three Marion County women were awarded Women of the Year for the Indiana Federation of Republican Women’s Patriot Ball. Their dedication and commitment is an example for us all.

Congratulations to our winners. No one is more deserving. Thank you for leading our party, county, and state. ❤️🇺🇸

I want to give a huge shout out to Chloe Anagnos, President of the Indiana Federation of Republican Women. Chloe spent thousands of hours planning the First ever Patriot Ball, held tonight at the Indiana Historical Society.

What a great event with the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and our Comptroller in attendance with their spouses. We learned The Grand March, Virginia Reel, and had a first class patriotic celebration.

We will post more pictures as they come in!

Well, I don’t know about you, but your GIRWC team is ready to run!

Thank you to Leadership Institute and Indiana Federation of Republican Women for putting on a fantastic morning of training and leadership development for women across the state of Indiana. We learned how to use our voice, be a strong candidate, and how to trust ourselves when taking the next steps in running for office.

Along with attending our detailed training, we took the time to serve by stuffing goody bags for the Patriot Ball tonight at the Indiana Historical Society. Tonight’s event is SOLD OUT and we are very much looking forward to celebrating America’s 250 with all our Republican girlies. 🇺🇸
