Friends of the Library Host Candidate Night

The Friends of the Merrimack Public Library will host a Library Trustee Candidates Night on Monday, March 26 at 7 p.m. in the Merrimack Meeting Room at the Town Hall Annex. 

This year six individuals have filed to run for two, three-year slots on the library's five-person Board of Trustees. The Friends of the Library want Merrimack residents to have the opportunity to meet the candidates and learn more about them.  

This year's candidates are Barbara Tucker, Wendy Thomas, Anthony Richardson, Gary Gahan, Richard Barnes and Chip Underhill.

Each participating candidate will begin with a brief opening statement and then all will be given the chance to answer questions submitted by audience members.  The forum will also be replayed on local cable access channel 20 before the election. 

For more information about this event, contact Leslie Fish, president of the Friends of the Library, by email at fishlesliea@comcast.net or call the Merrimack Public Library at 424-5021.
