Please pardon the Beverly Hillbillies reference, but this would express my sentiment in light of the fact that all 150 Town Meeting members must "run" to represent their precincts this year. There is an informative article about this subject by Veronica Hamlett, which I have attached. I enjoy working with and for the current Town Meeting, so I hope all of you will return. Since the requirement for everyone to run again is based on recent restructuing of our eight precincts, I have often wondered if there is an affinity for one's precinct. For many people it makes very little difference, but are other people disappointed when their precinct number changes? I am also fascinated by the geography of the precincts, and the Town Clerk's page on the Town of Walpole website has a cool map to show each precinct.
