The keynote address will be provided by Representative Joe Acinapura. Representative Acinapura, a state legislator who represents the town of Brandon, has an extensive history of public service, including chairing the Vermont Parole Board, the Governor's Veterans Advisory Council and the Brandon Selectboard.
