Jack Pratt Given Russell Award
Jack Pratt of Walpole was given the Russell Award, recognizing Cheshire County Democratic leaders who have done the most to get Democrats elected, during Saturday evening's Annual Cheshire County Democratic Party Spaghetti Supper in Keene.
Jack was first elected a Walpole Selectman in 1995, and in 1996 he won a seat in the New Hampshire House of Representatives to which he was re-elected four times. In 2004 he was elected minority whip. In 2006 Jack gave up his House seat to run for Cheshire County Commissioner but not before he persuaded Tara Sad and Lucy Weber to run for the House. He was sworn in as a County Commissioner last January. Jack also teaches Constitutional Law as an Adjunct Political Science Professor at Keene State College.
Thanks, Jack for all of your talents, time and energy devoted to good government and to serving all of us in Walpole and beyond!
