To the Editor:

April 28, 2026
I am writing to offer my strong support for Christine Hoyt and her re-election to the Adams Board of Selectmen. Over her nine years of service — including stints as chair and vice chair — she has built a deep understanding of the town's needs and developed relationships that directly benefit Adams.

Christine has been a steady leader focused on maintaining essential services, strengthening fiscal stability, supporting local businesses, and advancing important projects like the Adams Theater and Greylock Glen. She understands that there is still more work to be done, particularly in areas like infrastructure, economic development, and housing. However, this is exactly why her continued leadership is so important — we cannot afford to lose the valuable knowledge, experience, and continuity she brings at this critical time.

Beyond her resume, Christine stands out for how she serves. She genuinely cares about the residents and visitors of the town, as well as the town's employees. Collaborative by nature, she consistently steps into leadership roles when needed and is a trusted resource for those seeking guidance on town matters. She is always professional, prepared, and thoughtful in addressing the issues that come before the board. I don't think that those are skill sets we can afford to lose at this time.

Christine Hoyt provides the experience, dedication, and steady leadership that Adams needs to keep moving forward. I strongly encourage voters to support her re-election on Monday, May 4.
