Meet David Shypinka, incumbent candidate for Board of Assessment Appeals and every week David, and his wife Becky, hand wind the clock in the Town Hall clock tower and gazebo at Kenea Park; he is a real life “Clock Tender.”

As a lifelong Thomaston resident; David, his two children and three step children have all attended and graduated from Thomaston school system. Dave lives in town with his wife, Becky, and is currently relaxing after recently retiring with over 27 years of service to the town of Thomaston!
