We had brilliant weather for the evening of the dinner. The honorees and most guests arrived pretty early this year, but we were ready early, so we were really able to keep everyone happy throughout the evening. Along with our robust selection of delicious, homemade food, we had a special treat in store for all our guests, live music from the newly reestablished Farmington Community Band. This was the band's first public performance and they didn't disappoint. I think
our team efforts left everyone attending feeling great. We loved that Carol Shea Porter took time out of her busy schedule for us to present the award to each honoree and add wonderful sentiments about each honoree and the importance of being involved in your community. It was an absolute joy honoring Manny Krasner, the Three Ponds Protective Association, and the New Durham Recreation Commission. Each exemplifies how a sense of community and teamwork can indeed change the world, even if it is just a small section of it. If you didn't get a chance to attend, watch the video below to hear each honoree speak. I really appreciate all the
planning, prep, and hard work everyone put into the event. I hope we'll see even more of you next year! Kyle Leach-Chair Tri Town Democratic Committee.

communities The honorees dedicate their energies and efforts to make
our communities better places to live, work, and raise families. The
first honorees of the awards were Ron Chagnon of Farmington and Leo
Lessard of Milton. Both men served our communities well by holding
local, county and state offices. After the success of that first
dinner, the committee decided to make the TriTown Honors Dinner an
annual event that would recognize a member of each community for the
good work that individual has done to enrich the quality of life in our
towns and surrounding communities. While the TriTown committee
represents a loose organization of three Democratic Town Committees, the
TriTown Dinner is a non-political event, and the honorees are selected

breast, and roast beef, with scalloped potatoes, and side vegetable
choices. Salad and dessert are included.
The
honors for this second annual event will go to three very deserving and
well known community members. The Farmington Committee selected Dottie
Bean to receive the second Honors Award for Farmington. The Milton
Committee selected to honor Victor Joos for his contributions and the
New Durham Committee will honor Cathy Allyn for her continuous work to
support the New Durham community.
