SAUGUS — For more than 10 years, Saugus Action Volunteers for the Environment (SAVE) has held a Candidates Night event featuring environmental questions for those running for the Saugus Board of Selectmen.
This year’s forum will take place on Wednesday, Oct. 8, at 6:30 p.m., in the Saugus Town Hall Auditorium, 298 Central St. Doors will open to the public at 5:45 p.m. Light refreshments will be provided by The Saugus Garden Club.
We are fortunate to have Joyce and Al Rodenhiser, who have agreed to act as moderator and time keeper at our Candidates Night event again this year. They have a long history with us, being part of the original founding group. We appreciate their contributions over the past 50+ years, as well as their continued involvement with our organization.
The format will include an Opening Statement by each of the candidates, then a series of questions drawn randomly from our fishbowl by the moderator. All questions are related to environmental issues that have direct impacts on our Town. Each candidate will then have the opportunity to present their Closing Statement.
SCTV will be present to televise the forum live on Comcast Channel 8, and it will also be available online.
We hope you join us for a valuable opportunity to see and hear the Selectmen Candidates’ views on important environmental issues in order to make an informative decision this upcoming Election Day.
