To the editor:
While a bit belated, I would like to thank the Lincoln PTO for organizing and hosting the recent “Meet the Candidates” forum. The forum provided a great opportunity for all of the candidates (myself included) seeking positions on various town boards and committees to introduce ourselves to those in attendance and to each other.
As many of you are aware, I am running for the open seat on the Board of Selectmen. Since announcing my candidacy a few months ago, I have had the pleasure of meeting and hearing from many fellow Lincolnites about issues of importance to them. Listening to the needs and values of the town is at the core of the mission statement to the Board of Selectmen, and if elected, I look forward to the opportunity to continue this critical function.
I would also be remiss if I did not remind and encourage everyone to attend Town Meeting this coming Saturday. Each year, Town Meeting provides all of us the opportunity to participate and vote on issues concerning the governance of our town. Important discussions about town finances, potential school and community center building projects, as well as several citizen petitions, will take place. All of that, and a boxed lunch at an affordable price! I hope to see you all there.
Lastly, I once again ask for your support at our town election on March 28.
Sincerely,
James Craig
