Dear Readers:

I am beginning a short series of Cambridge Matters about some proposed changes to the County Charter. I hope that they will be of interest and that you will agree with what is being proposed.

The actual petitions will be provided at a later date after I have been able to explain them to you.

We need help in collecting signatures for these petitions, so if you are willing to help and have not already offered, please be in touch with me. We need people from all parts of the County.

Thanks.

Dear Readers:

In an earlier Cambridge Matters, I mentioned an upcoming virtual Community Conversation. I hope that you will attend to hear from others in the community and from people and groups providing resources about which you might not be aware.

Attached please find my Cambridge Matters about this event along with a flyer that allows you to register, if you would like, and offer ideas and concerns. You do not need to register, but doing so will provide us with your email address for future events and information.

Please share this with your groups, friends, relatives, and neighbors. We need to be part of the solution to improve possibilities for the children of this community and county.

Thanks for reading.

Cambridge Matters – Jan 17, 2022

Dear Readers:

I am part of a group that calls itself Moving Dorchester Forward. Our primary focus is on education, but we have come to realize that there are other issues that we are hearing about that the community wants to talk about and find solutions for. We have decided to see if we can help start that conversation and begin to engage the Cambridge and Dorchester County Communities in identifying challenges and finding solutions.
Attached is my 2nd Cambridge Matters of 2022.
Please take a look and plan to be with us on February 1st to listen and learn.
This is just a note to let you know what is coming. We will provide more details later this week and/or early next week.
Thanks for reading.

Annual CAN Business Meeting Postponed

The CAN Board has decided to postpone the January 13th annual meeting until late February or March.  This action was taken because of the peaking of the Covid virus and the stain it is putting on our healthcare system.  In the meantime, the three new Board members – Judd Vickers, Susan Olsen and Brad Rice – will be serving in an acting capacity.
More to come and stay safe

President, CAN
