Thank you for your excellent editorial on March 8 in which you defend the right of people in Otisfield to study and discuss their town government and call themselves Voices of Otisfield.

The Voices group includes many talented and dedicated individuals who represent a considerable resource for the town. In this group, you could find potential committee members and town officials of the future. They should be encouraged and not discouraged from trying to make a contribution to better town government.

Richard L. Jackson, Otisfield
