I have known Bobbi Oxton Blake since she was born. Some of the qualities that I think she will bring to the Camden Select Board include:

• Deep knowledge of and pride for her hometown, where she has lived her whole life. 
• A strong, demonstrated sense of service to her community; values which she grew up with. 
• Concern for responsible budgets, realistic spending, and fair property valuations.
• A good listener who cares deeply about the people who live, work, and own businesses in Camden.
• A younger perspective on the way the town government is run. 
• For all these reasons and more, I believe that Bobbi will be an asset to our select board. She is a born people-person, combining intelligence and common sense to serve the citizens of Camden. 
• Please vote for Bobbi Oxton Blake for Camden Select Board at the polls on June 10.
