Person of the Year: Port, Saukville Have Some Good Ones

It's the end of the year, and Port Washington and Saukville have had the privilege of meeting some amazing people, doing great things.

There was  and Rachel Anne Pipp who uses her artistic skills to benefit mitochondrial disease.  But we know there are people doing good that we never heard about.

This December, we'd like your help determing the Port Washington and Saukville person of the year. You can nominate anyone who lives, works or volunteers in town. But nominations close at 9 a.m. Dec. 13, so submit your picks now!

There are two ways to nominate someone:

Fill out the form above. We're asking for the person's name, why you think they should be Person of the Year, and a way to contact them. We also need your name and a way to contact you. This information will be sent only to Patch, and contact information will not be published.

Or, you can nominate someone in the comments, once you've signed up for and are logged in to your Patch account. If you choose to use the comments to make your nomination, please give us the person's name and why you think they should be person of the year, but don't put in specific contact information. Instead, use the person's name and enough detail so we could track them down. (For example: "The neighbor boy who rakes my leaves all fall" isn't enough for us to go on, but "Mrs. Johnson at Saukville Elementary who helped the third grade class with a great volunteer opportunity" would be a great starting point!)

Once nominations close at 9 a.m. Dec. 13, Patch editors will go through all the submissions and choose a person (or people) for the year. Stories will start running Dec. 26.
