I am writing this letter to express my support for Erin Boles-Welsh in running for Selectboard. Erin has been a valuable asset to our community for many years now, as a town meeting member and actively involved mom of 3. Erin has frequently provided the metrics regarding Covid cases and vaccination rates for our town Facebook pages, with graphs and age breakdowns. This has been tremendously helpful, as it can be difficult to access all of this information in a clear and concise way.

Erin is the leader that we need on our selectboard. We need to vote for the person who will focus on enhancing our community as a whole. Erin is focused on examining our town finances and deciding what changes could benefit most to support individuals, families, and the community.

As a mom, safety for my kids is a top priority, and Erin is devoted to the same issues- especially traffic and pedestrian safety. She will also focus on making the best of our public spaces, including parks and recreation and our schools.

In addition, Erin is highly focused on diversity and inclusivity, and I’m very confident she will be the best addition to our selectboard.
