TAMWORTH — Town Recreation Director Parker Roberts says he's grateful to the community for going to bat for him after his full-time hours with benefits for him, his wife and their four children were restored in January.

Selectmen last year had reduced his position to part-time, a move that sparked outrage among local parents and other citizens.

Glad the man sought legal counsel. How embarrassing that none of these 5 selectmen thought at all that he could threaten a lawsuit for discrimination. They weren't even subtle about their move..doing it soon after he was married with a kid. Lol.
