  • PP Spencer reminded us that April 13th is our joint meeting with the Concord and the speaker will be the Economic Development person for the state of MA. Rosalin Acosta is booked for April 13th. Rosalin is the secretary of Labor and Workforce Development for the state of Massachusetts (her bio is below). I told them we would have 40 to 50 people. This would be a good meeting to try and bring in prospective members and local town officials.Attendance is crucial so please try to make it! https://www.mass.gov/service-details/secretary-rosalin-acosta-biography-and-photo
