Lobster, politics on the menu at GOP fundraiser

NORTH NORWICH – The Canasawacta Country Club was host to the 37th annual Lobsterfest on Sunday, as the summer sun mixed with bipartisanship and crustaceans at the GOP fundraiser.

“It’s gone very well,” said Republican Chairman Tom Morrone, who has been hosting the event for over 30 years. He describes the event as an opportunity for state and federal politicians to mingle with members of the Republican party of Chenango County.

“It’s a good way for me to meet people,” said Congressman Richard Hanna. “It’s a lot of fun and I don’t have to wear a suit and tie.” Hanna explained it was a nice break before he had to return to Washington on Monday.

Assemblyman Cliff Crouch described the event as laid-back. “It’s not a place for speeches,” he said. “No one’s on their soap boxes.”
