Putnam County Young Republican Club Hosts State Convention

From the Putnam County Young Republican Club: Over the weekend, for the first time in club history, the Putnam County Young Republican Club hosted the New York State Young Republican Convention. Nearly 100 young republican delegates from across the state came to Putnam County to discuss the future of the Republican Party in New York.

“This was a remarkable opportunity for our club. It allowed the best and brightest come to Putnam to discuss ways in improving our state and develop ways to get our message out to all New Yorkers. It also brought great exposure to our community’s historic attractions and local businesses.”

At the convention dinner, fellow Putnam YR, Assemblyman Kevin Byrne, was honored as the New York State Young Republican’s pick for Assemblyman of the Year as well as Senator Sue Serino as Senator of the Year.

“We are proud to have two of our representatives, Assemblyman Kevin Byrne and Senator Sue Serino, honored at the Convention for their public service. They both work tirelessly up in Albany on our behalf and it is an honor they both truly deserve.”

This weekend would not have been possible without the hard work and dedication of past president John Greene and the other members of the Putnam Young Republican Executive Board. Thank you to Putnam County Golf Course, Bull & Barrel and Southeast Grille House for their hospitality and allowing us to use their facilities.
