Letter to the Editor: LaFreniere, Mannan for Select Board

by | Apr 15, 2022 | Letter to Editor

Mary Jo LaFreniere and Shahidul Mannan have our votes for Select Board on May 16. We encourage you to vote for them too. Mary Jo is already serving successfully on the Select Board, relying on her professional expertise as a former town assessor in Plainville and on her extensive inside knowledge of the town as a volunteer in numerous roles.

Shahidul will bring added financial expertise to the Select Board as an accomplished business leader who served for seven years on Hopkinton’s Appropriations Committee. Both Mary Jo and Shahidul are strong leaders who bring a high level of integrity, wisdom, relevant knowledge and commitment to their town service. We are fortunate that they are willing to lead Hopkinton ably forward.

Please join us in voting for Shahidul and Mary Jo on May 16th at Hopkinton Middle School.

— Stephen Campbell and Sheila Zarba-Campbell, Hopkinton
