Greenland Women's Club The Greenland Women's Club is pleased to congratulate Bob Krasko as Greenland's Citizen of the Year for 2010. Bob is also an active member of the Greenland Vets, where his fundraising ideas and efforts have contributed greatly to the stability and growth of the organization. As a member of the Vets he also volunteered to be part of the Greenland Bandstand Committee, and his enthusiasm for expanding the Summer Concert Series, and maybe even the bandstand itself, is infectious. "I'm the type of individual who just can't sit still," Bob told Portsmouth Herald reporter Joshua Clark after receiving the award. "I've got to be doing something, and I honestly love being involved in the town and the lives of all the neighbors and friends that I have here. I've done a lot over the years because I really care about all of the people in town, and I want to do whatever I can to make this the best place for someone to live and raise a family." Not one to hold a grudge, he readily will work side-by-side with whomever shares his goals, regardless of any past differences they might have had, and he does so with a sense of humor and gregariousness that puts others at ease as well. For the last 7 years, Bob has been a member the Budget Committee, and currently serves as vice-chairman. He spends many hours studying the issues, and seeks out additional information that might represent cost savings to the Town or School. Beyond For anyone who knows Bob, and there are few in town who don’t, “quiet” isn’t an adjective that would ever be used to describe him, but he was speechless upon receiving the award. "I'm usually not lost for words… I didn't even thank anybody, I was just so stunned. It was something that I wasn't expecting, but I am very grateful and very honored to be chosen as the Citizen of the Year. It's an honor to be recognized by your peers; there's no question about it” he told the Portsmouth Herald.
