She has strong outreach into the community and is always ready to have a conversation. She listens with an open mind; reflects on what she has heard; and follows up by asking difficult, thought-provoking, strategic questions.

The town was very fortunate to have Jill as the chairman of the High School Cafeteria Building Committee. This project hit many roadblocks. Jill came before the Board of Selectmen many times with updates.

Her presentations, which were professional, fact based and concise, reflected her competent, collaborative and calm leadership style. Jill just continued to move forward and get the job done!

  • Editor’s note: Letters to the editor about the Nov. 5 election will be accepted up until 11:59 p.m., Wednesday, Oct. 30.

As I reflect back on many of the conversations Jill and I have had, I smile and realize it is really fun to see the next generation of strong, intelligent, kind, caring women come forward and serve the town. I think it is right to say Jill McCammon is very similar to Susan Marks 20 years ago!

Please join me in voting for Jill McCammon.
