DEERFIELD — The League of Women Voters of Franklin County will host a candidate forum on Wednesday, April 30, ahead of next week’s town election, which will see Selectboard Chair Tim Hilchey facing a rematch from former Selectboard member David Wolfram.


Jack Wileden: Tim Hilchey for Selectboard
04-28-2025 11:43 AM

I’m writing to encourage the residents of Deerfield to re-elect Tim Hilchey to the Selectboard on May 5. Tim knows Deerfield well. Prior to his election to the Selectboard he served on the town’s Conservation Commission and Community Preservation Committee. He has worked hard to bring state and federal grant


Lori Baronas: Wolfram a proven public servant
04-28-2025 11:43 AM

I am writing to express my strong support for David Wolfram in the upcoming election for our town’s Selectboard. David is the kind of leader our community needs — open-minded, fair, and deeply rooted in the values and needs of this town.

Ed and Charlene Galenski: Deerfield Needs David Wolfram on Select Board
04-27-2025 8:21 AM

As lifelong residents of Deerfield for 75 years, we have watched the town change through those years. Change is inevitable and expected. In small towns, some changes can have a serious impact on those of us financially supporting the town through taxes. As we know, property taxes provide around 70% of the money needed to run the town of Deerfield. As we also know, property taxes usually increase moderately to allow households to plan for these increases. However, over the past five years, our town has seen an overall increase of 25% in our taxes!


Analee Wulfkuhle: Tim Hilchey works for Deerfield
04-27-2025 8:21 AM

In my 3½ years on the Deerfield Planning Board (3 years as chair), I quickly learned that our public meetings and appearances were minimal in relation to the amount of time and work that goes on behind the scenes. Selectboard Chair Tim Hilchey exemplifies this dedication to the maximum! Anyone can sit in a Selectboard meeting every two weeks without speaking or engaging, as some have done, but it’s the hours and hours of work between those meetings that make all the difference.


Grace Evangelista: Wolfram values doing what’s right for community
04-27-2025 8:21 AM

Hi everyone! I’ve been hearing some talk about my stepdad, David Wolfram, who’s running for the Selectboard, and I wanted to take a moment to clear a few things up. First and foremost, he is very supportive of the LGBTQ+ community. It’s honestly hurtful to hear otherwise, especially since we have close family members who are part of that community. This is something he deeply respects and stands by.


Thomas Wolslegel: Threats to library funding should not be tolerated
04-25-2025 11:21 AM

I am extremely grateful and appreciative of the Massachusetts Library System. My wife and I are retired and therefore now have the time to explore the many benefits it offers. We are shocked to hear that federal funding is now in question. What an absurd situation but symptomatic of the chaotic times we’re trying our best to get through. What helps us stay sane in insane times are the books, movies and music available to us thanks to the library. The idea that this is threatened along with all the other valuable services the library provides the community is just another example of the constant attacks on American ideals that are in the news daily. This should not be tolerated and I expect our elected officials to fight to secure federal funding for all libraries.


Dr. Kate Clayton-Jones: Support home care for elders
04-25-2025 11:21 AM

If you are an aging adult with needs in home care, or you are caring for a loved one who wants to remain at home, you should support Gov. Maura Healey’s proposed supplemental budget (H.4003) for FY25 which includes $60 million to help address the deficit in FY 2025 funding for the State Home Care Program. It would allow caregivers to be compensated while caring for a loved one.


Shirley Majewski: Wolfram stands behind well-being of Deerfield residents
04-25-2025 11:21 AM

One Saturday I went looking for David Wolfram signs to put on our lawn. We get hundreds of vehicles passing our house and thought it would be well known he is running for Selectboard and has our support. Our neighbors on Conway Street also had one of his signs and as drive around I see more signs which gives me encouragement that change can happen where we live and it would be for the good of the town that he gets elected.


Jon Oltman: Tim Hilchey for Deerfield
04-25-2025 11:21 AM

Please join me in supporting Tim Hilchey for reelection to the Deerfield Select Board, on town election day, Monday, May 5. Tim is hard-working, a good listener, and has had years of experience in serving Deerfield, including chairing the Conservation Commission, chairing the Community Preservation Committee, and in his current term on the Select Board. He works well with other town boards and departments, and has brought money into town from state sources to help offset the cost of various projects. I believe he truly has the interests of all Deerfield residents in mind as he carries out his duties on the Select Board, and I know he will do the same if reelected. Vote for Tim Hilchey on May 5!

My Turn: Vote ‘no’ to lower voting age to 16 in Deerfield
04-24-2025 9:06 AM

By CHARLENE GALENSKI

On April 28, at 7 p.m., attendees at the annual Deerfield Town Meeting will be asked to vote on an article to lower the voting age to 16 years old. This same article was defeated at last year’s annual Town Meeting so why try to have a second vote?


Letter: Support Tim Hilchey for Selectboard
04-24-2025 9:05 AM

Not long after Tim Hilchey moved to Deerfield, I got a call from him. He introduced himself and said that he had recently retired, wanted to meet, and talk about volunteering in the community. We met for coffee at the Dunkin’ Donuts and he told me about his background, that he had roots in Franklin County and that when he and his wife Pat retired, they chose to live in Deerfield.


Hilchey, Wolfram up for rematch to fill Selectboard seat in Deerfield
04-23-2025 4:44 PM

By CHRIS LARABEE

DEERFIELD — The May 5 town election will see a rematch of 2022’s race, as Selectboard Chair Tim Hilchey faces a challenge from former Selectboard member David Wolfram for a three-year term.


Pat Ryan: Keep Tim Hilchey on the job!
04-23-2025 11:32 AM

There’s no job description for DeerfieldSelectboard, but this May 5, there is one candidate whose record makes him the most qualified for the post: Tim Hilchey.


Rita Detweiler: There is more that unites us than divides us
04-23-2025 11:32 AM

I have been very troubled that so much of our social and political discourse has become confrontational and hostile. In an effort to set a different tone in the upcoming election in Deerfield, I reached out to Tim Hilchey and Dave Wolfram, the two candidates for the Selectboard in Deerfield, and asked both of them if they would be willing to jointly plan and hold an informational meeting in the spirit that we can have our differences but we can discuss them in a respectful and civil manner. They both agreed and they will hold an informational gathering on Friday, April 25, at the Polish American Citizen’s Club located at 46 South Main St. in South Deerfield.
