Norwalk Mayor Harry W. Rilling will deliver the keynote address at the Annual Spring Breakfast from 9 to 11 a.m. Saturday, April 26 at the Trackside Teen Center in Wilton. The Breakfast will include "recognition of the achievements and contributions of community members who have a long and distinguished record of dedicated service in the Town of Wilton and beyond," representatives said in a press release. 

“The Annual Spring Breakfast is one of our key fundraising events during the year,” says WDTC Chair Tom Dec. “It is also an opportunity for us to mingle with and hear from local, state and federal elected officials in the Democratic Party, so we are very pleased that Mayor Rilling is our keynote speaker.”

The Outstanding Wiltonian of the Year will go to Kimberly Johnson "in recognition of her commitment to maintaining Wilton’s unique character and preserving its small town values," according to the release. A native of Darien, Johnson moved to Wilton 15 years ago.
