Swampscott Select Board Candidates To Speak At Veterans Forum

SWAMPSCOTT, MA — The three candidates on the ballot for Swampscott Select Board will talk with town veterans about their issues and concerns — as well as their general priorities for the town, if elected — on April 15 at the E.F. Gilmore Chapter's monthly meeting on April 15.

DAV Chapter 64 Commander Jeffrey Blonder said that incumbent David Grishman, Stefanie Neumann and Doug Thompson have agreed to be part of the joint forum at 9:30 a.m. at the Swampscott Veterans Crossing building at 8 Pine Street.

The three candidates are running for two seats in the April 25 town election. Grishman is running for re-election, while Select Board President Neal Duffy said last month he is not running for another term.

Blonder said the meeting is open to all residents who would like to meet the candidates. This is the second year in a row the Disabled American Veterans Chapter has held a candidate forum.

A complimentary breakfast will be served at the event.

Those planning to attend as asked to contact Blonder at 617-967-6892.
