New York State Senator Frank Padavan,  our beloved Republican State Senator for 38 Years in Eastern Queens, now retired, presents the Lifetime Achievement Award to James Trent. President and Founder of the Queens County Farm Museum, James Trent has selflessly given over 50 years of civic service and leadership to the residents of Queens County, without asking for anything in return. As the Club’s workaholic Lincoln Dinner Chairman, he exclaimed that this was “the most successful, profitable and well attended GOP event he has ever hosted.”


Lincoln Dinner 2014 Videos: Reps. Peter King and Bob Turner

In his keynote address, Rep. King talked about America, about New York City and Queens as well as his bid for the presidency. He called on the Republican Party to move forward in Queens and get rid of the intramural fights and stand together. 

Here are the videos and photos of former Congressman Bob Turner introducer and keynote speaker Congressman Peter King at the 139th Anniversary Lincoln Day Dinner. Republican Congressman Bob Turner formerly represented New York’s Congressional District 9, after he won the epic special election battle against longtime Democrat David Weprin in an overwhelmingly Democratic district, becoming the first Republican to represent the area in over eighty years. Turner was mentored by Homeland Security Chair, Congressman Peter King and today they remain very close friends.
