“Leadership in Hilltown Communities”

Come meet Katherine (Kathe) Warden, the Becket Town Administrator, and Robin Mathiesen, Becket Town Clerk.

After years of serving in administrative positions in the towns of Chester and Hinsdale, Kathe became Becket’s Town Administrator in August, 2022. She now supervises 25 full-time and part-time office staff and officials and provides advice and guidance to elected and appointed town boards and committees. Though she has been in her position a relatively short time, she has demonstrated a welcome willingness to both listen and lead our community. Kathe is a believer in women climbing the ranks of civic leadership positions, from politics to police departments. And feels like community involvement is critical.
