HELD on June 16 at 6:30 pm for our first Zoom Forum
featuring some of our ballot and write in candidates for
Select Board, Planning Board and Regional
School Committee roles, including audience Q&A
We hope you are very well! We’ve missed seeing you all at BCN (Brewster Community Network) forums, so we are trying what everyone else seems to be doing – getting together on “zoom”. Sorry for the short notice, but Brewster’s June 23 elections suddenly got more interesting, with bids from new write-in candidates for key positions and at least three “write-ins” vying for the one open spot on the Nauset Regional School District Committee. So we are giving the candidates an opportunity to present their case for your votes, followed by audience Q&A.
We are giving you all a “heads up” now, as we know (for safety) that many of you already have mail-in ballots. Our forum next Tuesday will be a week before the election, which leaves plenty of time to wait to hear from the candidates before sending in your ballot. You can join with or without video, but as we have limited connection capacity, you will need to register ahead and be a Brewster voter who is identified by your actual name.
We will shortly send out an update on the acceptances, as well as more information about how to join the Zoom forum on-line. Meanwhile, please save the date and time! June 16th at 6:30 pm.

You will receive details of how to join the Zoom Forum on-line prior to the June 16th meeting.
If you know other Brewster voters who didn’t receive this notice but may like to participate, please ask them to sign up for our mailing list today at: www.brewstercommunitynetwork.org/contact/ so they can receive the forum details as well.
As you know, it is free and we would never share contact information without the owner’s permission.
Kind regards,
