2012 Pittsfield Citizen Of The Year

Pittsfield Ray Webber copy.jpg

Raymond “Ray” Webber III has been chosen as the 2012 Pittsfield Citizen of the Year. Ray has been a valuable part of the Pittsfield Community for many, many years and has volunteered in countless organizations and community projects – usually much of his work is done behind the scenes as he is not one that likes to be the center of attention.

 

Ray has volunteered for many 4-H projects with our local Victory Workers 4-H club where he has taught numerous youth invaluable woodworking techniques and skills.  While assisting our youth with their chosen projects he teaches self-confidence and shows them that their projects have value, as well as a sense of accomplishment.  He is a member of the Executive Board of the Merrimack County 4-H Foundation. He also volunteers as one of the cooks for the Hopkinton Fair 4-H Leaders Food Booth.

 

Ray serves as a member of the Pittsfield Historical Society Board and is always involved in many of their projects. He has assisted in installing the Cotton Mill Bell on Factory Hill; repairing the gate at the dam site at the bottom of Factory Hill; spent countless hours each spring planting flowers and doing fall cleanup at the Lyman Park on Carroll Street. He continually offers the use of his truck for hauling mulch, dirt or whatever else may be asked of him.

 

Ray was a member of the Parks and Recreation Committee for many years and worked on various projects at the Town Pool as well as cleanup at Dustin Park. He is a very active member of the Old Home Day Committee – again, helping wherever and whenever needed. He has been a volunteer for the annual Octoberfest, Winterfest and the Children’s Christmas Store sponsored by the Greater Pittsfield Chamber of Commerce.

 

Ray volunteered when the original playground was constructed at the Pittsfield Elementary School.  He has chaperoned school ski trips for many years while his daughters were students in the Pittsfield Schools. His daughters have since graduated but Ray continues to transport ski equipment, as well as chaperone the students.

 

His most recent volunteer contribution was building the dugouts for the new ball fields at the Pittsfield Youth Athletic Field on Tilton Hill Rd. 

 

As you can see, Ray is and has been for many years a valuable asset to the Town of Pittsfield. These are but a sample of his volunteerism.  We are sure there are many more we do not even know about.  Anyone who knows Ray, knows that he always has a smile on his face and is more than willing to offer a helping hand any time he is asked. Ray is a very kind and generous individual and he has relentless energy.  He has made many friends in Pittsfield and surrounding communities while biking with a group or with his family. Biking is indeed his favorite past time when he isn’t volunteering. He’s always in the background and never asks for any recognition of any kind – that is why the honor of being Pittsfield’s Citizen of the Year for 2012 is most fitting and deserving.

 

Thank you Ray for all you have done for Pittsfield.  We truly appreciate it!
