Survey regarding the color of Hanover’s Town Hall

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

When you look at a city or town hall, it is sure to say a lot about the
community’s values, culture, and history. Preserving town halls and
government buildings help maintain the structural integrity of the
community and the governance of a community. Hanover’s Town Hall was
built in 1863 where it sits today and was designed by the architect Luther
Briggs, Jr. and builder Samuel Nathan Turner.

Throughout its history the Hanover Town Hall has been altered to meet
Hanoverians’ needs and to keep up with the latest trends in architecture
and planning. One of the most eye catching changes has been the town
hall’s color. Originally, the building was painted brown, and then a
forest green.

The City Beautiful Movement developed in the 1890s and early 1900s as an
attempt to improve the quality of life which plagued both urban and rural
America. Hanover as well as many other suburbs transformed themselves in a
number of ways, including changing the color of their government buildings
to white. The white color represented purity and future prosperity.

The Hanover Town Hall has been repainted from brown, to green, to the white
color it is today, and it has not been altered despite the passing of this
movement. Currently, the Town Hall Restoration Task Force is focusing on
restoring and preserving the Hanover Town Hall and giving it a historically
appropriate color that would respect the town’s history and the community
as a whole while still being the centerpiece of Hanover’s civic fabric.
This fall, please take the opportunity to visit the online survey where you
can vote on what color best suits the Hanover Town Hall. Your opinions and
feedback will be immensely appreciated.

Friends of Hanover Music Yard Sale

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Friends of Hanover Yard Sale – Saturday 9/24
Town Hall Parking Lot – 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.

The Friends Of Hanover Music Annual Yard Sale is coming up fast on
Saturday, September 24 at the Town Hall parking lot, and this year there’s
a twist! They’ve partnered with Savers so that most anything that is not
sold at the Yard Sale can then be bagged up and donated to Savers, who will
actually pay them to give them the items! So, it’s more important than ever
that they receive as many donations as possible. Of course, they hope that
every item will be sold, but if not, it will now help them out anyway.

So mark your calendars for Saturday, September 24, and start scoping out
items around your home, garage or attic that would be put to better use
supporting music programs in our public schools. Please see the attached
flyers for more information. Unfortunately, they cannot accept TVs, CRTs,
or electronics that we would have to pay to dispose of. The sale runs 9:00
a.m. to 3:00 p.m., and donations can be dropped off as early as 7:00 a.m.
that day, but will be accepted throughout the day if you are not able to
get there early.

Any questions can be directed to Friends of Hanover Music or
ljen909@aol.com. Spend some time with them at the yard sale, then head down
the street to B. Everett Hall Field, where the Hanover Firefighters are
putting on their wonderful annual Touch a Truck event. It should be a great
day for all!

Painting and photography exhibit

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

New Exhibit: Picturing Hanover in Paintings and Photographs

Featuring the artwork of local resident Betsey Josselyn and the
photographic collections of the Hanover Historical Society

On display at the Stetson House, 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. on Saturdays
September 17, September 24, and October 1, 2016

This exhibit combines the artwork of local resident Betsey Josselyn and the
photographic collections of the Hanover Historical Society. A series of
twenty paintings by Josselyn will be on display throughout the historic
300-year Stetson House. These diminutive paintings are all scenes of the
local landscape in Hanover. They bring the natural, familiar landscape of
places like the North River and Forge Pond into new perspective. Paired
with each painting will be photographs drawn from the Hanover Historical
Society’s collections. The historic photographs, pieces of artwork
themselves, will complement the paintings, documenting how much Hanover has
changed, or sometimes stayed the same, over the past century and a half.
This exhibit is designed to foster an appreciation for the distinctive
character of Hanover through historic photographs and contemporary artwork.

Join Girl Scouts!

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Join Girl Scouts! Registration Event September 21st

Is your daughter looking to meet new people and have fun? Girl Scouts could
be what she is looking for! Girl Scouting is for girls in grades K-12. With
the guidance of adult volunteers, Girl Scouts earn badges, explore the
outdoors, attend fun events and field trips, and participate in the Girl
Scout cookie program.

Who can join Girl Scouts?
Membership in Girl Scouts is open to all girls in grades K-12. Women and
men over 18 can join as adult members to volunteer.

What do Girl Scouts do?
Most Girl Scouts become part of a troop (a group of 10-15 girls with adult
volunteers) and meet regularly throughout the year. Troops meet 1-2 times
per month for a couple of hours with some activities being longer (e.g. a
field trip or overnight).

Are there fees to join Girl Scouts?
The annual Girl Scout membership fee is $25 for girls and $15 for adults
(financial aid is available). Many troops collect dues and participate in
the Girl Scout cookie program to help cover the cost of badges, books and
activities throughout the year.

Please join Hanover Girl Scouts at their “Open House style” Girl Scout
registration event!
When: Wednesday September 21st
Where: John Curtis Free Library, Large meeting room (1st floor)
