Two events will be held. Ticket options for each event are listed below.

Lincoln Day is the party’s annual celebration and reflection on the strengths and goals of the organization. In addition to Bruce Rauner's keynote, party Chairman Kyle Harrison, will deliver the “State of the Republican Party in Champaign County” address. Guests will also have an opportunity to meet and hear from federal, state, and local elected officials and candidates.

Bruce Rauner is a self-made businessman who had no inheritance or family wealth. He is proud to show people how he has reinvested much of that success into the state he loves through supporting education, the YMCA, local hospitals and community organizations. His greatest passion is education. He and his wife, Diana, have spearheaded efforts to develop charter and choice schools.

Bruce has never let his success change him. He is the proud father of six children – two boys and four girls – and his wife Diana is the love of his life. He hunts birds, hikes, loves riding his Harley, and jumps at every opportunity to fish.

Bruce isn’t interested in a political career. He is running for governor because he loves Illinois and refuses to stand by while career politicians drive it into the ground. He is willing to take the special interests controlling state government head on and reform the way Springfield does business.
