Please join me in voting for Peter Mimmo for Select Board.

I write in support of Kyla McSweeney for one of the open Hopkinton Select Board positions.

I have known Kyla and her family for over a decade. Her decision to run for this position is founded on her concern for the challenges being faced in our community.

Kyla has a background of being an avid volunteer in town, including being an elected member of the Cemetery Commission.

I write in support of Peter Mimmo for one of the open Hopkinton Select Board positions.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Peter and his family for many years. I believe Peter will bring great knowledge and experience, as well as a fresh perspective to this role.

Peter is a licensed attorney who has dedicated his professional career to public service in Massachusetts.

He has also served in many volunteer capacities in our commonwealth, including being elected to our Hopkinton Board of Assessors.

I am writing to endorse Brian Herr for Select Board. I have worked with Brian for several decades as a result of our overlapping roles serving the community of Hopkinton. My roles on the School Committee, the Appropriations Committee, and as the Chair of the 300th Anniversary Celebration Committee have provided me with a long-term and multi-faceted view of Brian. We have not always agreed on the matters before us, but I have always found that Brian seeks input, listens to and respects other viewpoints, and works collaboratively to move the town forward.

If you wish to send an endorsement letter or letter to the editor, please review the below guidelines.
