Message to Supporters

As the campaign nears the end, I want to thank all of you for your support. Now we need you to take some time to help us over the finish line.

1. Make phone calls on our behalf. Call 10-20 people Monday afternoon/evening to remind people to vote and to make the case for Dickson for Selectman. Reach out to neighbors and friends who may not always be active voters. Some talking points:
a. A new perspective to bring positive change
b. Introduce long-term planning so every year isn’t a crisis
c. Increase transparency so we can better follow our government
d. Work toward consensus to increase the success of major projects
e. Improve the business climate in town
f. Support open space and water protection initiatives
g. Support the override

2. Email your contacts to remind them to vote and to give a brief testimonial about how to vote. Use this link to Dave Whitney’s excellent letter - http://www.capecodtoday.com/blogs/index.php/2011/05/12/why-i-support-john-dickson-for-brewster?blog=36 You can also link to our blog – http://dicksonforselectman.blogspot.com - our newspaper ad - http://dicksonforselectman.blogspot.com/2011/05/campaign-ad.html - or our flier - http://dicksonforselectman.blogspot.com/2011/04/our-campaign-flier.html

3. In your communications, consider also talking up Mary Chaffee and Jose Fernandez. They have been intimately involved with our campaign, and we are lucky to have two such amazingly qualified people running for the Board of Health. Also, Suzanne McInerney has been supportive of our campaign and is an excellent candidate for the Planning Board.

4. Consider standing out with us on Tuesday at the Baptist church. Email me back – johntdickson@gmail.com if you are able – we will provide shelter from the rain showers that may roll through.

5. Call your phone list back Tuesday afternoon to make sure people have voted.

Thank you in advance for your work on this final push. See you at the polls! -John Dickson
