Spring is here. Delightfully unfolding all around us in Medfield. We have a wonderful place to call home as April turns towards May. And in the spring, I have the pleasure and privilege of inviting you to attend our Annual Town Meeting on Monday evening, May 1, 2023 at 7:00pm. We come together as a legislative body. We conduct the business of the town as citizen legislators. And we do it as friends and neighbors.
Please join us. We discuss, debate, deliberate, and decide. We focus on the important matters described in the town’s 2023 Warrant Report. We have 32 Articles to consider this spring, including budgets and local laws and regulations.
Please join us. The home of the town meeting is the Amos Clark Kingsbury High School gymnasium. Respecting schedules and time demands, we legislate in one-evening (usually). By charter, we gather on the first Monday of May. We come together live and in-person. We speak directly with one another. Every Medfield voter is invited, and every attendee participates as a legislator with a voice and a vote.
Please join us. We continue a heritage of direct, open, democratic, participatory self-government. We hear from our Warrant Committee. Our executive branch of government faces the community. Our collective judgement sets the budget and town objectives for fiscal year 2024. Our collective determinations set the course for Medfield’s future.

Let’s go!
It would be great to see you at the high school on May 1. Be well.
Respectfully,
Scott F. McDermott

From Tod Dimmick –
The 6th New Life 5k Trail Run hits the trails on May 13th
New Life Furniture Bank is excited to host its 6th annual 5k Trail Run and Kids Fun Run, on Saturday, May 13th on the Medfield State Hospital grounds (at Hospital Rd. & Service Dr., Medfield, MA). The route winds through the beautiful Charles River Reservation, and the event is open to runners, walkers and everyone in between. Bellforge Arts Center will host a live DJ, food trucks, and fitness activities.
Trail Run registration is open at newlifefb.org/5ktrailrun. An “early bird” discount of $25 is available until April 29; after that registration will be $30 until May 11; and $35 on race day. On-site Kids Fun Run registration will be $5. There is a $5 group discount for teams of four or more when the registrations are made at the same time. On-site registration opens at 9:00 am on race day. Children ages 4-10 are invited to join us for the Kids Fun Run at 10:00 am, and the Trail Run starts at 10:30 am, with live music to follow. The first 250 people to register will receive a t-shirt on race day.
The Trail Run benefits New Life Furniture Bank of MA and its mission to provide gently used household furnishings to individuals and families transitioning out of homelessness.
The Medfield-based non-profit organization operates a Walpole Donation Center and serves the MetroWest and Greater Boston area. New Life provides a meaningful option for folks who are downsizing, renovating or disposing of a loved one’s property.
“Last year, New Life served over 700 households and the demand for our services is greater than ever,” noted Rich Purnell, Executive Director of New Life. “The Trail Run is a fun and effective way to make a difference for the individuals and families we serve as we empower them with the means to furnish their homes.” Over the years, the Trail Run has become a community-building event and New Life is grateful to Bellforge for collaborating to enhance the race atmosphere.
Those interested in being a sponsor, volunteering, donating home furnishings, or making a financial contribution are encouraged to visit www.newlifefb.org.

Hunter’s Run Foundation was founded by Kristen Williams. It serves to bring awareness to Organ Donation. Kristen Williams’ 14 year old son is a two time double lung transplant recipient. Hunter had his first transplant at 21 months old. He was blessed to have his second in July of 2015. In late 2022, Hunter had a kidney removed and is battling cancer. He is undergoing chemotherapy but still enjoys getting out and exercising all that his body will allow him. Hunter is hoping to be able to ride his bike around the course this year!!
We are so excited to announce April 2, 2023 will be the 8th Aunnual Hunter’s 5K Run and 1 mile Fun Run. This is Hunter’s Run Foundation’s 8th consecutive year raising funds for Boston Children’s PediatricTransplant Center. These funds go to familes who are currently in the hospital with their sick child. Funds go to help with housing, food, and parking amonst other family needs (as Boston Children’s sees fit). These funds help families focus on what is important during which could be the most tramatic time in their life. Our 2022 donations allowed us to gift Boston Children’s Hospital $10,000. We also donated to Donate Life New England. We hope to do the same in 2023!!!
Hunter’s Run Foundation’s mission is to bring awareness to the importance of Organ Donation. It also serves to help various organizations such as Boston Children’s Hospital and Donate Life.

This documentary is inspiring. It is entertaining to watch and offers new hope for the climate crisis conversation! If you have been suffering from climate-related anxiety or despair, this movie is for you. Please help to spread the word to neighbors and friends.
I started this blog to share the interesting and useful information that I saw while doing my job as a Medfield select board member. I thought that my fellow Medfield residents would also find that information interesting and useful as well. This blog is my effort to assist in creating a system to push the information out from the Town House to residents. Let me know if you have any thoughts on how it can be done better.
