Thanks to 43 Groups for Advising Vote Medford 2007

Many thanks go out to each of the 43 community organizations that served on Vote Medford’s advisory group.  Some of these organizations disseminated information about Vote Medford to their membership and encouraged people to submit questions to us; others critiqued and edited the final set of candidate questionnaires to make them fair and accurate.  Their assistance was invaluable.  We would like to invite you to support the work of these and all of Medford’s community organizations, which improve the quality of life of everyone in our city.
