Inaugural Mary Anne Krupsak Trailblazer's Dinner

The Montgomery County Democratic Committee is proud to announce the first inaugural Mary Anne Krupsak Trailblazer’s Dinner. Hosted during Women’s History Month, the Trailblazer’s Dinner honors women in the field of politics, government and public service in Montgomery County. It’s namesake, Mary Anne Krupsak grew up in Amsterdam, had a distinguished public service career, and was New York’s first female Lieutenant Governor under Hugh Carey.


This celebration will highlight the beauty of our community and what can be accomplished when we work together. Situated near the beautiful Mohawk Valley Gateway Overlook bridge, Julian’s offers a great gathering space and the food from our friends Paul and Joe Parillo of L’utlimo Osteria will be outstanding. Business leaders, elected officials, committee members and friends will all come together


This year we are excited to announce the following awards –

·      Mary Anne Krupsak Trailblazer Award – Helen Bartone

·      Democratic Dedication Award – Margaret Simmons

You can support the Montgomery County Democratic Committee and recognize these outstanding trailblazers by purchasing an ad in our program book, sponsoring the event, and purchasing dinner reservations in advance.
