Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Hanover Day is set for June 27th and volunteers are now being sought for
the following roles. If you have always wanted to participate in Hanover
Day, but didn’t know how to, here are some ideas! Please contact Chris
Haraden at charaden@comcast.net for more details or to sign up.

Volunteer Opportunities
These are the major volunteer opportunities that need to be solidified now,
and we have some folks already working in these areas who could use
assistance. On the day of the event, there are many other things that will
need to be assigned, so all levels of interest and availability are
welcome. We can definitely use more hands to lighten the load!

– Assist Dave Malekpour with Hanover’s Got Talent auditions and managing
the logistics of the acts
– Also assist Dave with the Battle of the Bands to seek out bands, market
the event, obtain prizes and sponsors
– Sponsorship requests. Work with Chris Hillier to contact local businesses
about sponsorships and participation.
– Cathy H-B needs 8 drivers of shuttle vans to bring vendors back and forth
to Briggs Stables, and do the pickup routes to senior housing throughout
the day. No special license is required to drive the vans.
– 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament coordinator. Could be one or two people.
Maybe an adult and a HS student with an interest in basketball? Manage
registrations, set up games, coordinate referees, help obtain prizes for
winners. We have templates to use from past years. This is a fun event but
has lots of moving parts – perfect for an organized mind!
– Volunteer coordination. Work with Molly Connolly to ensure all have CORI
checks, sign up volunteers for parts of the event that need them, sign off
on HS students’ forms for community service hours. Help recruit
volunteers at the high school.
– Info booth captain. On the day of the event, the info booth should be
staffed at all times. Coordinate volunteers to be sure someone is always
there throughout the day to answer questions, direct volunteers who arrive
for their shifts, stay in contact on walkie-talkies in case of an
emergency.
– Food vendor coordinator. Work with food trucks and other vendors on
selection and locations.
– Field management. Work with Paul Nimeskern to sure the tables, chairs,
and tents we order get to where they need to go (stage, 3-on-3 courts, food
tent, etc.). Be sure generators are in place and operational. Work with DPW
and others on logistics and be sure we are keeping required clearances for
fire trucks, etc.
– Marketing and promotion. Work with Rachel Hughes to help with social
media, website, promotions, etc. Also, making sure we promote all of the
different activities that are happening throughout the day to target
audiences (seniors, kids, athletes, crafters, stage performers)

Again, please contact Chris Haraden at charaden@comcast.net for more
details or to sign up!

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Hanover Town Clerk Catherine Harder-Bernier today reminded registered
Hanover voters and caregivers of registered Hanover voters that the
Massachusetts legislature passed a bill in 2013 that amended election laws
pertaining to physically disabled voters. Massachusetts General Laws
Chapter 54, Section 86 reads in part, “A voter who will be unable by
reason of permanent disability to cast his vote in person at the polling
place may file once with the city or town clerk a certificate executed by a
registered physician who is personally acquainted with the voter and aware
of his permanent disability, stating that it is reasonably certain because
of permanent physical disability that the voter will be unable to cast his
vote in person at the polling place on the day of the election.”

Once that letter from the physician has been received by the Hanover Town
Clerk’s Office, the voter will once a year automatically receive an
application for an absentee ballot by mail. The application may then be
filled out and returned to the Hanover Town Clerk’s Office, and will be
good for the calendar year if the voter so designates. Absentee ballots,
as they become available prior to an election, will then be automatically
mailed to the permanently disabled voter.
“This is a relatively simple way to save time and ease the load of a
permanently disabled voter or caregiver. Just send us a letter from your
family physician and we will take it from there. We are pleased to be able
to continue to offer this service to Hanover residents”, said Town Clerk
Harder-Bernier.

For more information about this process, please contact Hanover Town Clerk
Catherine Harder-Bernier at Catherine.harderbernier@hanover-ma.gov or
Assistant Town Clerk Meg Pallotta at meg.pallotta@hanover-ma.gov or (781)
826-5000 x1079. Letters from physicians regarding a patient’s permanent
disability may be sent to Catherine Harder-Bernier, Hanover Town Clerk, 550
Hanover Street, Hanover, MA 02339.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Hanover Town Clerk Catherine Harder-Bernier announced that Wednesday,
February 12th is the last day to register to vote or change your party
status for the upcoming Presidential Primary. Town Hall will be open from
8:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. on the 12th.

Any Hanover citizen over the age of 16 is encouraged to register to vote.
Once registered, individuals ages 18 and up will be eligible to vote in the
Presidential Primary scheduled to be held on Tuesday, March 3rd, 2020, and
in all elections thereafter. Any resident who is unsure of their party
affiliation, or who would like to change their party status, is also
encouraged to act immediately and before the February 12th deadline.

Citizens of Hanover may conveniently register to vote or change their party
status on-line, by mail or in person. The link for on-line registration is
here:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=wFgrEJqiCAWSCXFMUwbdf/FTrXAvJUQqtnBhWE//AkdoqLt7nDOIRqoN783ZLADJ
. If residents choose to register by mail they should download the
“Massachusetts Mail-In Voter Registration Form” found here :
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=9UdczQVgknCwmXZ0sUfJ/vFTrXAvJTQqtnBhWE//AkdoqLt7nDNIRqoN783ZLADJ
and mail the completed form to the Hanover Town Clerk’s Office.
If voters wish to register to vote in person, they may do so at two
convenient locations: Hanover Town Hall or the Registry of Motor Vehicles.

“With four political parties and therefore four ballots at the polls,
residents are strongly encouraged to check their party status before
February 12th,” said Town Clerk Harder-Bernier. According to Secretary
of the Commonwealth William Francis Galvin, “When you register to vote,
you may choose to enroll in a political party or political designation or
may choose to remain ‘unenrolled,’ which is commonly referred to as
independent…if you enroll in any of (the) four parties you may only vote
in that party’s primary.”

Questions may be directed to Hanover Town Clerk Cathy Harder-Bernier at
(781) 826-5000 x1079 or by e-mail at catherine.harderbernier@hanover-ma.gov
, or Carol Mattes at carol.mattes@hanover-ma.gov or (781) 826-5000 x1028.
