John P. Quiñones IV (born April 26, 1965 in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico) is an American politician. He was the first Republican of Puerto Rican ancestry elected to the Florida House of Representatives, serving from 2002 to 2007, and is currently a member of the Osceola County Commission. He received his Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Central Florida in 1988, and his Juris Doctor degree from St. Thomas University in Opa-locka in 1992. Quiñones, who was elected in 2002, represented the 49th District of the state, which stretches between Osceola and Orange counties. On February 1, 2007 he resigned his seat in order to concentrate on a run for a newly created seat on the Osceola County Commission.[1] His campaign was successful and he was reelected in 2010.In 2012, he announced that he would be a candidate for the United States House of Representatives.

Originally we scheduled the event for a luncheon ...but from what I gather from the phone calls our Ms. Gonzalez has performed I am thinking we need to have a vote on the times so that all can attend. This is our FIFTH year! We need to celebrate this great occassion! We never ever have canceled this event. So let us put this to a vote and please respond to me via email. Event should be a : Breakfast event 8:30am to 11:30am / Lunch event 12:30pm to 3:30pm / Or an after work early hour get together - 4:30pm to 7:30pm....... if we decide on the after work event it will only be appertizers and a drinks.So the cost will go down and will be more casual. So please members and non members I will need to know ASAP! The anniversary is only one month away! Email me at prhccpc@gmail.com
