Dear Neighbor:

Over the years, I have met countless outstanding women who work tirelessly to make a difference in our communities yet, all too often, their exceptional acts go unnoticed. That is why I am hosting a Women of Distinction event to honor women who go above and beyond to make our communities better places to live, work and raise a family.

To nominate a woman, please submit the enclosed form on or before Friday, September 25. My selection committee will review all nominations for notable women in the fields of business, community and civic affairs, education, government, health care, humanitarian and military services. Nominees must be residents of the 19th Assembly District. If you know a woman who deserves to be recognized, please complete the form and return it to my district office at 404 Bedford Avenue in Bellmore, NY 11710.

I hope you will join me in thanking the outstanding women of our community at my 2009 Women of Distinction award ceremony on Thursday, October 15 from 11 am to 1 pm at the Levittown Public Library located at 1 Bluegrass Lane in Levittown. Their tireless work and unwavering commitment have not gone unnoticed and I encourage you to take this opportunity to nominate a woman who deserves this special distinction.
