A free Valentine’s Brunch will take place from 11:00 am to 12:30 pm on February 14 where women and minorities in Marion can explore running for town offices. Here is an opportunity to create broader representation in town government. Women in particular are encouraged to come. We will invite women who have participated or have experience in local politics. You will have opportunities to meet with them to discuss their thoughts about being part of decision-making offices. These jobs affect every person and family in our community. Elections this year will be for Assessor, Select Board, Planning Board, ORR and Sippican school committees, and the Board of Health. You do not need previous experience in town government to apply. Information about each position will be available at the party.
The brunch will be held at 10 Cove Street, Marion, and those interested in coming should text a response with their name or call 603-759-9287.
