Running for the CCSD has been a thrilling experience for me and I would like to congratulate all the other candidates who took the time and energy to run for this important office.

We are facing some problems that I am sure we can overcome with a little diligent effort and the time necessary to take on these new challenges. Challenges such as communicating more clearly with our constituents and solving our many water problems, which I am sure we can do with alacrity and perseverance.

One should always try to be engaged in life and never stand on the sidelines and carp at the problems we all face here in Cambria as well as our nation as a whole. “An unexamined life is not worth living,” Socrates once observed in a moment of candor.

We live in this gorgeous place with the beauty of the ocean, the splendid trees, the small shops, the Joslyn Center, the Vets Hall, and all the lovely homes that dot our community. To have a voice in the direction our community is heading is an honor without parallel.

We came here because it was small and cozy and free of such problems as congestion, crime for the most part, the friendly atmosphere, and most of the problems that big cities have.

We have some nice restaurants, three quaint gas stations, an outstanding fire department with excellent paramedics, two small grocery stores one far larger than the other, three first-class doctors, three dentists, and a bevy of real estate offices, all nestled along Main Street and Bridge Streets.

If I am elected to the Board I will do my best to serve our community and it will be an honor to serve all of you.
