Dear Friends and Supporters…
It is with great honor that I announce my intent to run for Sheriff of Cheshire County during the 2010 election.
I’ve devoted over 20 years serving this great community and hope to continue to do so as your Sheriff. I currently work for the Keene Police Department as a Sergeant assigned to the Bureau of Prosecution, prior to joining Keene I worked for the Winchester Police Department and the Cheshire County House of Corrections. I am always honored to say that I served this great nation as a member of the United States Coast Guard and the United States Army Reserve. The above accomplishments have allowed me to developed the commitment, experience and integrity needed to serve as your Sheriff.
Why am I running for Sheriff? To serve the People of Cheshire County and continue my involvement with this great community, it’s the right thing to do.
I’ve always believed in civic duty and community involvement, and you will find me involved in local organizations, such as:
Chair of Keene High School Project Graduation
Volunteer for Keene’s NECBL Swamp Bats
Moderator for the Keene School District
Commissioner, New Hampshire Post Secondary Education Commission
Member of the Keene Kiwanis
Keene Elks Club
Member of the United Church of Christ in Keene
Several Booster Clubs at Keene High School
Volunteer for the Keene Music Festival
In 2002, I ran my first campaign for an elected position and was honored to be the candidate with the most votes for a position on the Keene School Board during 2002 to 2004, serving as Chair of the Board during part of my term.
As your Sheriff, I pledge to you my committed to work together with the community, local, state and federal law enforcement agencies and county officials to keep Cheshire County a safe and enjoyable place to live.
I hope to have your support and your VOTE come November 2, 2010, so that I can continue to serve this great community. Please, revisit my website to stay up to date on my campaign.
Sincerely,
Eli Rivera
