Town Election: May 9, 2006

Hi! You’ve probably reached my site after seeing my email address on information about my candidacy for the Douglas Board of Selectmen.

New: Election success! Now the hard work begins. Thank you to everyone!

New: Please read excellent questions from the Maurer family, along with my responses.

I don’t maintain a personal site just for the campaign; what you see is about it. I do have a few other web sites if you are curious. My business web site is http://www.ProactiveInteractive.com. My wife and I maintain an occasional blog at http://www.AlysaandMitch.com. It is mostly filled with photos from our cross-country RV trip in 2004 and from our wedding the year prior. I also have a very small site, http://www.MitchPhotos.com, with information about my photography hobby which has turned into a minor but very exciting side business.

I also maintain two local Douglas web sites. The first is the official Town of Douglas web site at http://www.DouglasMA.org. The second is the Douglas Historical Society site at http://www.DouglasHistoricalSociety.org. I work on both sites without cost, as it’s something I can do to help out a great town.

If you have any questions about my experience or ideas for the Board of Selectman, please feel free to send me an email at mitch@mitchcohen.com or call me at 508/476-0125.

I am very excited about the prospect of serving the town on the Board of Selectmen. I hope I can have your help when you cast your ballot May 9th, so I can continue my efforts to make this an even better town.

Thanks!
