Keep Things Running Smoothly

I am encouraging Killingworth voters to support the current team of selectmen, Cathy Iino as first selectman, along with Louis Annino, Jr., and Fred Dudek as selectmen. This is a bipartisan team that for the past sixyears has worked together, sometimes under difficult circumstances, to keep Killingworth in a good, even, and forward-looking place.

There are prosperous new businesses in town. Parmelee Farm is an ever more active community gathering place, this summer hosting a monthly Farmers’ Market and several weddings. There is a senior lunch at the Congregational Church on Wednesdays sponsored by the Estuary Council and expanded 9 Town Transit service.

All this and more thrive under the steady leadership of our present Board of Selectmen. To a person they not only embody good leadership qualities, but the spirit of Killingworth volunteerism. Over the years, Cathy Iino has volunteered for the long established Killingworth Library Board as well as the more recently created Killingworth Foundation and the Killingworth Women’s Organization. Lou Annino, Jr., and Fred Dudek were born and raised in town with parents who got them involved in volunteering early and often. If you grew up here, that’s just what you did.

Good stewardship, fiscal responsibility, integrity, and the ability to play well in the sandbox are qualities not to be taken for granted. They are the qualities that keep things running smoothly.

I encourage your readers to vote on Nov. 3 to keep our present Board of Selectmen in place where they serve us so well.
