Mark Fisher
I am running for selectman for Limestone. Since moving here eight years ago I have been a driving force for all the children in town and will continue to do so. There is a wealth of resources in our town that could be better utilized and as a selectman I will work towards that. Revitalizing our town will not be an easy task but it can be done with ingenuity, great creativeness and, most of all, the citizens of our community. Thank you for your time and see you at the polls.
Wade McLaughlin
I would hope to be an instrument of change for our community. Presently we have an opportunity to make progress regarding town improvement. I am interested with many aspects of our community, the hiring of a community development director, the development of the adult park with town clock the Rotary Club has endeavored to see completed, and seeing to fruition the library expansion. The situation with our town roads the state government has bestowed upon us also needs to be addressed. I would strive to be an advocate for everyone. This is why I would make the best choice for selectperson.
Ernest Smith
I decided to run for the selectman position because I feel that as a community we can achieve many things while keeping the economic challenges we face in sight. I have lived in Limestone for 11 years and have been actively involved with various programs such as coaching various sports, with the school and rec, budget committee, rec board, and highway department. From these experiences, I have seen where improvements can be made and I am willing and ready to achieve these goals.
