The Enfield Democratic Town Committee, together with our slate of candidates for the November 2, 2021 Municipal Election, invite you to celebrate with us on Saturday, October 16, 2021 at the Suffield Country Club (341 N Main Street, Suffield, CT) as we host two very special EDTC events; 

Our annual EDTC Golf Outing (1.00P) and 

Our annual EDTC “Democrat of the Year” Award & Dinner (5.30P). 

 The annual EDTC “Democrat of the Year” Award & Dinner: Doors to the Suffield Country Club Restaurant open at 5.30P. A contribution of $55.00 per person includes: hors d’oeuvres, an elegant dinner buffet catered by the Storrowton Tavern & Carriage House and our “Democrat of the Year” Award presentation at 7.00P. This event is cash bar. 

There are two very exciting announcements regarding our “Democrat of the Year” Award for 2021. For the first time ever, we will be awarding two “Democrat of the Year” Awards on October 16th.  And we have commemorated the “Democrat of the Year” Award to honor two long-serving ETDC Members. 

Beginning this year, when the “Democrat of the Year” Award is presented to a person whose passion and commitment to Enfield is more, or better, known for their contributions to the Town of Enfield, as a whole…this award will now be called The William “Red” Edgar Jr. “Democrat of the Year” Award for Dedicated Service to the Town of Enfield, CT. 

Our inaugural recipient of this newly commemorated award is Mr. Anthony “Tony” DiPace. Tony has served Enfield with passion and determination for several decades, on multiple committees & boards, including serving time as Chair of our very own EDTC. Please join us on Saturday, October 16th when we honor Tony DiPace for his service to Enfield, CT. 

And going forward, recipients of the EDTC “Democrat of the Year” Award who receive this honor for their passion & commitment to Enfield, but may be more, or better, known for their contributions to the students of Enfield, CT - or whose heart is “youth-focused” - will receive the newly named The Joyce Hall “Democrat of the Year” Award for Service to the Youth & Educational Community of Enfield, CT. 

The first recipient of this newly commemorated award is Mrs. Tina Lapponese LeBlanc. Tina has passionately served the students, families & staff of EPS on the Enfield Board of Education since 2011, while raising three children of her own, and volunteering with all of their school & sports activities. Please join us on October 16th when we honor Tina LeBlanc for her service to Enfield.

*In honor of Joyce Hall, the EDTC will be accepting donations of (new) children’s books at both events on Saturday, October 16th. The books will be donated to Enfield’s KITE& First Readers Association. Anyone who wishes to participate in our book drive will receive a FREE Joyce Hall “plaid” face mask. Thank you!
