Letter to the Editor: Endorsements for Ritterbusch, Ronan

by | Jun 25, 2020 | Letter to Editor

With great enthusiasm, I endorse Amy Ritterbush for Hopkinton Select Board. I have known Amy for several years as a fellow Girl Scout leader and as a fellow member of the Historic District Commission and Claflin Fountain Restoration Committee. In her many endeavors, Amy is always exceptionally prepared and arrives with a thorough understanding of the facts before her. She ensures that the rules are followed and evenly applied. Hopkinton will be well-served by Amy’s leadership on the Hopkinton Select Board.

I am pleased to endorse Dawn Ronan for School Committee. Dawn will be a powerful voice for our children because she always has the underdogs in mind: students who might have educational needs that don’t fit in with the mainstream; children and parents for whom a policy is too expensive; or community members that might not be heard. Dawn was a fellow Girl Scout leader for many years and, while I served as the town Girl Scout coordinator, Dawn was certain to come to me to make sure policies were fair to all and applied equally to all. Dawn Ronan will be an asset to the Hopkinton School Committee.

— Stacy Spies, Hopkinton
