Maybe it's a parent, a teacher, a scout leader, a coach. Maybe it's an elected official, a civic association leader, a school board trustee, a village mayor, or other community leader.
In a community such as Commack there are undoubtedly plenty of people across town to look up to, and we'd like to recognize those people by asking you to nominate them for our "Greatest Person" honor.
In the coming weeks we'll accept your nominations to name Commack's Greatest Person. Community members will later have the chance to vote on the final result.
Submit your nominations as a comment below or email editor Sara Walsh at sara-megan.walsh to participate. Please include your full name and the reason why you have chosen the person your are nominating.
The individual named Greatest Person will be featured in an upcoming Patch story.
Follow Commack Patch on Facebook or on Twitter @CommackPatch to get the latest updates on what's happening in your community.
IIRC, there were hardly any nominations.
Did I miss anything?
not only did the patch not answer viewers questions, your editors purposely deleted comments. votes were swayed by unfair acts. aside from brief story about nominees, readers then went above and wrote long drawn out detailed stories to get votes. all nominees "friends" could have done that too,( i could have written too about a nominee i know) And asking for votes on facebook/social media(as one nominee did) was uncalled for as well.then editor said voting was reopened, then suddenly closed. why not just throw out the entire competition. i'll call the 4 nominees - all winners with no numbers! really, ridiculous!
