Letter to the Editor: Ritterbusch ‘a powerhouse of knowledge’

by | Jun 14, 2020 | Letter to Editor

Amy Ritterbusch is a powerhouse of knowledge about Hopkinton. Any question I have regarding the town Amy has the answers immediately. She serves the town in many ways — she is on the Planning Board, the Design Review Board, eHop Board, Historic Commission. She chaired the Growth Study Committee and is involved in Scout leadership.

I have known Amy for over 14 years, from the time I moved to Hopkinton. Our kids studied together and are in Scouting together. Over the years, I came to know Amy very well and have huge respect for the way she balances all her commitments and responsibilities. Amy is a strong, sincere and committed leader, and the town of Hopkinton will greatly benefit from having Amy on the Select Board.

I strongly believe that Amy Ritterbusch is the ideal candidate and I endorse her candidacy for the Select Board. Please vote for Amy Ritterbusch for Select Board.

— Meena Kaushik, Hopkinton
