The National Federation of Republican Women presented the 2009 Ronald
Reagan Leadership Award to Texas Republican leader Toni Anne Dashiell
at the 35th Biennial Convention in
Orlando, Fla.
A resident of Boerne and president of the Texas Federation of
Republican Women (TFRW), Dashiell received the award at a luncheon on
Sept. 13. The award was established by the NFRW in 2005 to recognize
the outstanding leadership of one state president and is presented
every two years at the biennial convention.
Dashiell and four other state presidents were selected as finalists
based on overall leadership and initiation of new programs, increases
in membership, participation in national programs, and excellence in
public relations and campaign efforts.
During her two-year tenure as TFRW president, Dashiell has led 10,000
members to action on a wide range of issues, has overseen statewide
communications workshops and has implemented high-tech tools such as
Facebook and Twitter. She has been active in the Federation for 15
years, serving in numerous leadership roles at the state and club
level. Likewise, she has assumed leadership roles within the
Republican Party at all levels and has worked on dozens of campaigns.
