I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to everyone who made this year’s Annual Town Meeting such a meaningful and successful event. To the many residents who showed up, spoke up, voted, and participated—your engagement is what keeps Sudbury’s democracy strong.
I’m especially grateful to our dedicated Town staff and tireless volunteers whose behind-the-scenes work makes this process possible year after year. Your efforts reflect a deep commitment to our community’s future.
A special thank you to Town Moderator Cate Blake for her thoughtful leadership and steady hand in guiding us through the meeting with fairness and clarity.
It’s an honor to serve on the Select Board and to be part of a community that values thoughtful dialogue and active participation.
