Tkacz Named Enfield's Republican of the Year
ENFIELD – Bob Tkacz, an active member of the GOP Town Committee for more than a decade, and a current member of the Elections Redistricting board and Demographic Study Group has been named Republican of the Year.
Republican Town Chairwoman Mary Ann Turner said today that Tkacz was selected for the honor based on his willingness to tackle hard issues facing the party and the community. "He has been willing to step up and take action, rather than being a 'Monday morning quarterback,'" Turner said.
She added that Tkacz, "Participates on many boards and commissions. More than once he has taken a stand that may have been counter to other beliefs, but he has made us all think, and sometimes rethink issues facing our town."
