The annual Patriots’ Day event is also the time when the SRTC announces their annual Republican of the Year.  This year Mary Hunt and Lisa Perry were recognized as Republicans of the Year.  Both ladies were honored for their many years of selfless and dedicated service to the Republican Party and candidates.  Mrs. Hunt and Mrs. Perry  are now members of the Sandwich Republican Hall of Fame. This is the 7th annual award.  For previous year’s winners, please visit, http://www.sandwichrepublicans.org/fame.html
