ACT NOW- SERVE YOUR COMMUNITY
Town government needs citizens who are willing to give time in the service of their community. The Talent
Bank was adopted by the Selectmen & Moderator as a means of compiling names of interested citizens
to serve on a voluntary basis, on boards and committees. This file is available for use by the public as well
as the Moderator and Selectmen. Talent bank forms are being updated to include categories consistent
with the changing needs of the Town. Indicate your preference and return the form to:
