Republican of the Year awards were presented by Lake County Republican Party Chair Randy Ridgel (left) to Penny Lunt and Greg Scott. Photo by Janeane Bogner.

The speaker was Holly Swanson, author of “Set Up and Sold Out: Find Out What Green Really Means.”

Swanson turned out to be an extremely convincing, electrifying speaker, who in her well-documented book takes the position that the Green Party, made up primarily of radicals and leftover Communists, has an agenda that has little to do with green. A rousing question and answer session followed.

“Republican of the Year Award” winners honored this year were Penny Lunt and Greg Scott for their extraordinary performance and service to our citizens and party. Their special awards were presented by party Chairman Randy Ridgel.

The club thanks everyone for attending. The event was a success and a good time was had by all.
