Four compete for two Bridgton Select Board seats

When Bridgton voters go to the polls on Tuesday, June 13, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. at the Town Hall, they will get to choose two people from a pool of four candidates for the Select Board.

Candidates filing nomination papers as of last Friday’s deadline were incumbents Carrye Castleman-Ross, who filled out the remaining year of Fred Packard’s term, and Paul Tworog. Also seeking office will be Daniel J. Harden and James W. Kidder.

Seeking to return to the Bridgton Planning Board is Charles Kenneth Gibbs, who will be challenged by Angela L. Cook.

No one tossed their hat into the Planning Board alternate ring (one position open).

With Pamela Brucker and Lee Martel-Bearse completing their terms on the SAD 61 School Board, 2 three-year posts are open. One candidate will be Richard T. Meek.

Barry N. Gilman is a candidate for the one Bridgton Water District trustee position.

Absentee ballots will be available at least 30 days prior to the election, according to Town Clerk Laurie Chadbourne.

Bridgton’s annual town meeting is Wednesday, June 14, at the Town Hall starting at 7 p.m.
