Letter To The Editor

 

Lori Mahar for Selectman: Building Community Together!  Voting Day: March 13th!

 

My husband and I have lived here almost 6 years and actively participate in our community. I have volunteered for the afterschool program, Capital Improvement Committee, and Old Home Day Committee which introduced me to the makings of our town. I became involved in our local groups such as Women’s Fellowship, Community Helpers, and End 68 Hours of Hunger to get to know the people of our town, and I formed the Women in Business group and Barnstead Farmers’ Market to contribute my area of expertise to the town. All of these efforts have led me to consider running for an important job as Selectperson. I feel I am ready and that I can make a difference in our community as your Selectperson.

 

Over these past years we have seen a lot of growth such as new families and businesses moving into town and some good community changes. I feel blessed to live in a town filled with wonderful people who truly care about kids, animals, people, the food we grow, and the community around us.

 

As Selectperson, in addition to working with others to oversee the town management, I would like to focus and build on the strengths of our town, such as the following: create an open and friendly environment for our people to have a voice, encourage working together as a whole community versus divisive decision-making, encourage leadership within our municipal offices and support their efforts to manage teams and departments more efficiently, and most importantly create an environment of kindness and respect, encouraging a team spirited work environment.

 

Please join me for a Meet and Greet at the Maple Street Church, Sunday, February 4th  from 1pm to 2:30pm.
