Dear fellow Hanoverians:
* *
*”Santa Claus at the Stetson House” *
This is the 29th year that the Stetson House has been welcoming
Christmas to Hanover, and the theme this year is “Santa Claus at the
Stetson House”.
*Ornaments are back! *
Yvonne Bright has designed the classic “Santa Claus” ornament for
this year’s 2011 Christmas ornament. Ornaments may be purchased
through the Friends of the Stetson House for $10 each and picked up at
the Stetson House concert or during the opening weekend. Please make
out and send your checks to: Friends of the Stetson House, P.O. Box
2064 in Hanover.
*Preview Party and Concert*
On Friday December 2nd, the Stetson House will open its doors from
6:15 p.m. to 7:45 p.m. for a special preview. Attending the Preview
Party at the Stetson House has become the tradition to welcome the
holiday season in Hanover. The House is at its best as the window
candles will be turned on for the first time, and the rooms will glow
with holiday cheer.
The preview opening of the Stetson House is followed by a special
holiday concert at 8:00 p.m. given by the Harbour Choral Arts Society,
which was founded in Hanover. It is directed by David A. Williams,
with accompanist, Brendon Santani. The concert will be presented at
the Congregational Church across the street from the Stetson House.
After the concert, ticket holders are invited to Congregational
Church’s Parish Hall (Riley Hall) for refreshments and a social
time.
Tickets are limited and are $10 each. This includes the evening tour
of the Stetson House, the concert, and wonderful refreshments. Tickets
may be ordered through the Friends of the Stetson House, P.O. Box 2064
in Hanover (they will be mailed to you if you include a
self-addressed, stamped envelope) or purchased at the John Curtis
Library or at the Town Clerk’s office on the lower level of the Town
Hall. Don’t miss this gala evening. The table topiaries and
decorations will be on sale that evening.
