She also serves on the RNC Budget Committee. In 2008 and 2009, Dashiell served as president of the Texas Federation of Republican Women. During her tenure, the TFRW membership grew to more than 10,000 members. Also, during this time, she mobilized TFRW’s members to support Voter I.D. legislation, which was eventually passed by the Texas Legislature. And in 2009, the National Federation of Republican Women awarded her the Ronald Regan Leadership Award. Toni Anne Dashiell has been active in politics, grassroots advocacy and leadership training for more than 40 years. She is an empowering personality who added women from Nigeria, Bosnia and Burma to the long list of leaders she has empowered by training in campaign management, leadership development, and communication. Toni Anne’s service as a volunteer grassroots leader dates back to 1968, when she worked on a presidential campaign as a member of Teenage Republicans. Since that time, she has been a consistent leader in numerous Republican campaigns including presidential, Senatorial and Congressional, statewide, city and county races. Her combined experiences as a grassroots leader and a leadership development trainer have given Toni Anne insight into developing political organizations and mobilizing teams of grassroots activists to accomplish their goals. While she was president of the TFRW, Toni Anne mentored 165 local club presidents by instituting monthly conference calls and implemented the use of new media tools, including e-newsletters and social networking sites. She has presented in numerous campaign management schools, Get-Out-the-Vote workshops, and leadership seminars. It is this distinguished service that led Toni Anne to receive the Ten Most Outstanding Award from TFRW in 2011. Locally, Toni Anne has served as President, First Vice-President, and PAC Treasurer of Kendall County Republican Women and she was named the Kendall County Republican Party Volunteer of the Year in 1999. She was elected as a delegate to numerous Texas Republican State Conventions and served as a delegate to the 2004, 2008 and 2012 and 2016 Republican National Conventions. She was appointed the Texas Community Service Leader at the 2004 National Convention in New York City, and organized the other delegates to clean up a stretch of riverbank in New Jersey. She also served on the 2016 Rules Committee in Cleveland. Toni Anne believes in the importance of community service. She has demonstrated this value by serving as a leader in her hometown, including the Boerne Chamber of Commerce, Government Affairs, the Boerne ISD Budget Committee, Kendall County Sherriff’s Community Advisory Board and the Boerne Community Theatre. Toni Anne holds a B.A. in recreation therapy. She worked as a licensed nursing home administrator and established an Alzheimer’s Day Care Center before changing careers.
