democrats3649The 2009 Truman Kennedy Dinner was a great success.  Approximately 275 attendees enjoyed a delicious dinner, participated in a silent auction fund raiser, and applauded this year's award winners.  The evening was topped off by a rousing address from the keynote speaker, Rep. Steny Hoyer.

 

The John Thomas Parran Award 

This award is the top honor given by the Central Committee.  The John Thomas Parran Award is for the individual who best exemplifies the idea of “Democrat of the Year”.  This honor is bestowed to recognize an individual’s efforts as a Democrat, how the individual has made a real mark on the community for its betterment and improving the visibility and perception of democrats as a result. 

2009 John Thomas Parran awardee:  Charles County Sheriff, Rex Coffey

The Truman Award 

The Truman Award is the honor given to a Democrat who has taken a stand for what is right, despite how popular or unpopular that stance was at the time.  The individual selected for this award is one who took action that was/will be considered far ahead of it’s time.  This individual is recognized for making a difference. 

2009 Truman awardee:  Mr. Jeff Guido 

The Kennedy Award 

This award is in the spirit of the late President John F. Kennedy.  With this award, we honor a Democrat who lends their voice, be it through words or actions, to those who otherwise might have been unrepresented.  With this award, we recognize the individual who made a difference in a way that disarms even his staunchest opponents, but who never backs down. 

2009 Kennedy Awardee:  Mr. Donald Wade
