Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Vacation Week Music Program at the John Curtis Library

David Coffin, a musician, singer, storyteller, educator and maritime
specialist, will present “Life At Sea: A Voyage In Song” at the
library on Tuesday, April 16 at 3:00 p.m. The musical program recreates a
voyage on an old Nantucket whaling ship, with the audience members acting
as the ship’s crew. Mr. Coffin will lead the audience in singing sea
chanteys, “hoisting the sails”, and taking part in other shipboard
activities. Playing the concertina and other instruments, he is
particularly skilled at getting a whole audience singing. There will also
be a special appearance by his friend Sarafina, a limberjack. (What is
that? Come to the show and find out!) The program is very interactive,
full of humor, and informative as well as entertaining.

Mr. Coffin is a descendant of the Nantucket Coffins, one of the most
prominent American seafaring families. He is a multitalented performer
who has been singing and playing music at hundreds of venues all over the
country for more than 30 years. He regularly presents educational programs
at schools around New England. Since 1991 he has been Master of Ceremonies
for the Christmas Revels in Cambridge, MA. Well-known storyteller Jay
O’Callahan has said of him, “David Coffin is a man of presence, humor
and magical abilities. He is a musician, singer and storyteller whose
enthusiasm transforms an audience.”

The program is recommended for families with children in kindergarten and
older, and adults without children are also welcome to attend. They hope
to attract a multigenerational audience, as anyone who likes music and
history can enjoy this presentation. For more information, please call
781-826-2972, extension 4, or email the children’s librarian at
lcampbell@ocln.org.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

The Hanover Visiting Nurses Association is pleased to be able to present a
discussion on Lyme disease.

WHEN: Tuesday, April 9, 2019
WHERE: Hanover Town Hall, 1st Floor Meeting Room
TIME: 6:30 p.m.

They will have Elena Monarch, Ph.D., Sean Foss, ND, LAC and Clair Haddad,
Health Coach from Lyme and PANS Treatment Center in Cohasset as their
panelists to help peel back the onion on Lyme disease and other tick borne
illnesses.

Since Lyme disease has a multitude of symptoms, many of us in Hanover are
or have someone in our lives who are suffering from the symptoms. You may
not even know that the symptoms you or they are displaying may be from a
tick-borne illness.

See you on 4/9/19. Talk to your friends about attending, too! Learn about
these illnesses that are quickly becoming an epidemic.

For more information contact: Pat Stone at patstone9@yahoo.com .

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Hanover Town Clerk Catherine Harder-Bernier announced that Tuesday, April
16th is the last day to register to vote at the May 6th Annual Town Meeting
and in the May 11th Annual Town Election. The Hanover Town
Clerk’s/Registrar’s Office will be open from 8:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. on
Tuesday the 16th. Interestingly, Friday, April 26th is the last day to
register to vote in the Special Town Meeting that is also scheduled for
Monday, May 6th. The Town Clerk’s/Registrar’s Office will be open
until 8:00 p.m. on that Friday night, too.

Any Hanover citizen who will be eighteen on or before the first day of Town
Meeting (May 6th) or by the Town Election (May 11th) is encouraged to
register to vote. Once registered, individuals will be eligible to vote in
all elections thereafter. Further, residents may “pre-register” to
vote if they are age 16 or 17, but they will not be eligible to vote until
they turn 18.

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: https://www.sec.state.ma.us/OVR . If residents choose to register
by mail they should download the “Massachusetts Mail-In Voter
Registration Form” found here:
https://www.sec.state.ma.us/ele/elepdf/Voter-reg-mail-in.pdf 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.

“New residents and high school students are strongly encouraged to
register to vote. It is the cornerstone of our democracy!” said Town
Clerk Catherine Harder-Bernier. “Several major decisions have been made
on Town Meeting floor by a one-vote margin and local elections have turned
on less than 10 votes just in the past few years. Register now to
vote…so you can vote in May!”

Questions may be directed to Hanover Town Clerk Catherine Harder-Bernier at
(781) 826-5000 x1079 or by e-mail at Catherine.harderbernier@hanover-ma.gov
, or Senior Registrar Nancy Goldthwait at (781) 826-5000 x1082 or

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Avoid the LATE fees – license your dog today! Late fees begin this Monday,
April 1st!

Hanover Town Clerk Catherine Harder-Bernier reminded residents that 2019
Town of Hanover dog licenses are still available on-line, by mail, or in
the Hanover Town Clerk’s Office. The licensing period is January 1, 2019
– March 31, 2019, and a $10 late fee applies beginning April 1, 2019.
All dogs over the age of 6 months are required by law to be licensed. The
license is good for one year, and costs $10 for spayed or neutered dogs,
and $15 for intact dogs. Residents over the age of 70 will be given a free
license for their vaccinated dog upon proof of the owner’s age.

In an effort to make this process easy for residents, there are several
ways to license your dog:
• The easiest way is on-line via a link on the Town Clerk’s section of
the Town of Hanover’s website, which is also here:
https://townforms.com/TownForms/public/Login/BusinessUserLogin.aspx?ch=FB41A7C6E5AFCA94A2F2D9044860C90E&rtn=%2fpublic%2fforms%2fformViewer.aspx%3fch%3dFB41A7C6E5AFCA94A2F2D9044860C90E%26fn%3dSHDogLicense
. If your dog is currently registered in Hanover, you will just need
his/her current tag number to find your on-line record. Set up an account
and pay on-line without leaving the comfort of your home! Almost one-third
of Hanover residents now license their dogs on-line – try it out!
• Residents may also fill out the dog license application that is found
on the Town Clerk’s section of the Town of Hanover’s website at:
https://www.hanover-ma.gov/sites/hanoverma/files/uploads/hanover_dog_license_application_revised_with_on-line_payment_info.pdf
. This is the same application that was included in the census this year.
Completed forms may be mailed in with your payment, proof of current rabies
vaccination and proof of spaying or neutering (if you have not submitted
that information previously) to: Town Clerk’s Office, 550 Hanover Street,
Hanover, MA 02339, and your tag will be mailed back to you.
• As has always been the case, dog licenses may also be obtained in
person at the Town Clerk’s Office during normal business hours. Please
bring the same paperwork – current rabies vaccination, proof of
spaying/neutering if you have not submitted that information previously,
and your cash or check payable to the Town of Hanover. PLEASE REMEMBER
THAT WE CLOSE AT 8:00 P.M. ON WEDNESDAYS, 4:00 P.M. ON MONDAYS, TUESDAYS,
AND THURSDAYS, AND 12 NOON ON FRIDAYS!

Unlicensed dogs are subject to a minimum of a $25 fine, with an additional
$25 fine if unleashed and another fine of $50 if unvaccinated for rabies.
Don’t delay; get your dog’s license today! Late fees begin April 1st!

If you have questions or need more information about the licensing of your
dog in Hanover, please call the Town Clerk’s Office at (781) 826-5000
x1079 or e-mail catherine.harderbernier@hanover-ma.gov or
meg.pallotta@hanover-ma.gov . Kennel owners are encouraged to call or stop
in also, as their licensing process requires an inspection and other
additional reviews and paperwork.
