On Feb. 25, the Massachusetts Select Board Association will hold an interactive webinar with the Massachusetts Moderators Association: “An Insider’s Look at Town Meeting.”

Veteran town moderators Mark DiSalvo, Carmin Reiss, Alan Foulds and John Arnold will discuss both open and representative town meetings.

The conversation will cover:
· Building strong relationships between select boards and moderators
· How to manage discord at (and before) town meeting
· Increasing resident engagement and participation
· Using technology in town meetings

Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in an interactive open dialogue moderated by DiSalvo. Both new and seasoned MSA members are welcome to attend for a timely discussion before town meeting season begins.

The webinar will run from noon to 1:15 p.m. and will be moderated by Lincoln Select Board Member Jennifer Glass, the MSA’s District 2 representative.
