Dear Editor:
I am writing in support of Beth Casavant for Shrewsbury Select Board. I have known Beth for a little over ten years, and in that time, she has taken on many leadership roles within the Shrewsbury community, from PTO president all the way up to Select Board. Very memorably she successfully rallied our community in support of our public schools at a moment of crisis in 2014; it seemed like an impossible feat, but she did it. Beth has inspired countless people to run for Town Meeting, as well as many other town leadership positions. As a member of the Select Board, Beth engages with the community on social media and in person. She is happy to meet or talk over the phone with anyone that has questions or concerns about any matter affecting Shrewsbury. Beth helped implement a public comment period before all Select Board meetings. Beth is straightforward and transparent, a true public servant. With Moe DePalo stepping down from the Select Board after 30 years of exemplary service, Beth is now our most senior Select Board member. She’s the linchpin that will ensure that our town keeps moving in the right direction. Please join me in voting for Beth Casavant for Shrewsbury Select Board.
Sincerely yours,
Lisa R. Powers
Shrewsbury
