I am so pleased to offer my endorsement for Amy Ritterbusch for Select Board, and in truth I encouraged her to run even knowing she would be very missed on the Planning Board. It has been my great privilege to work with Amy on the Planning Board (PB) that I chair and...
As the chair of the Hopkinton Democratic Town Committee I am very proud of the slate of candidates that are in our local election and, regardless of their partisan affiliation, they stand extremely qualified on their own credentials. To note, members of this committee...
I’m one of the signers of the petition to keep Hopkinton’s woodland trails soft-surfaced. With 210 signatures so far on the online petition and more on the original paper petition, it seems like a lot of trail users agree with me. I usually make two points about the...

Making an endorsement for Select Board is difficult for me in that I know both candidates well. Both have been of service to the town for many years and have contributed to our community in significant ways. I have worked with Amy Ritterbusch in a few capacities, but...
