Sandy Hook Organization for Prosperity
S.H.O.P.
Michael Burton
President
I have been a resident of Sandy Hook for the past 27 years. Having owned and operated my own construction and development business, Michael Burton Builders, Inc., since 1983, it was exciting to get involved in two major projects which are helping to revitalize Sandy Hook Center.
Mike Porco Jr.
Vice President
Sharon Doherty
Treasurer
My parents moved to Sandy Hook back in 1965. I grew up in Sandy Hook spending many hours in the center and I have seen many changes for the the better. I met my husband Dan in 1997 and we purchased our first home here in Sandy Hook where we started our family. When we were searching for our home we kept coming back to the house we now live in, I guess I just couldn’t bring myself to move away from the quaint town I grew up in.
