The AK Interior GOP
commonly known as “The Friday Lunch Group”
This website is designed to allow Interior Republicans a landing spot for finding information that they can use to help elect strong conservative Republicans to office, engage our citizens and community members on events, issues, and general information regarding governmental affairs. We are providing this information to help bring people together to create stronger conservative values in our community.
This meeting has been going on for over 40+ years. We are an unorganized group of LIKE MINDED PEOPLE who want to engage our community and share important issues, values, and community perspectives with our friends and community members. Guests are always welcome, and the meetings are open to the public.
The gathering is not an official function of any Republican Party organization. The Friday group has no officers, no dues, no rules except for the mandate of our original charter which requires that guests buy their own lunches and that they keep a civil tongue. These meetings are NOT allowed to be recorded without express permission of the moderators and at the discretion of the speaker.
