Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Remember Louis Cook
Saturday, August 22, 12:00 – 1:00 p.m.

Join the Hanover Historical Society as they remember Louis Cook, the
“Country Auctioneer” who operated Cook’s Auction Galleries just off
the old route 3 (now route 53) in Hanover. Thousands of people attended his
auctions in the 1950s and 1960s, looking for an evening’s entertainment and
a bargain.

This free program will be held in the Stetson House Barn (514 Hanover
Street). Pre-order a bagged lunch for $10, or bring your own. To order a
lunch or for more information, please email
hanoverhistoricalsociety@gmail.com or call 781-826-9575 by Thursday, August
20.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Help Support the Light Family with a Jimmy Fund Yard Sale

Hanover’s own Light Family and their neighbors will be having a
multi-family yard sale this Saturday, 8/15, from 8:00 – 2:00 p.m. The
location of the sale will be the two corners of Maplewood Drive and
Larchmont Lane (GPS – 143 Maplewood Drive). All of the proceeds of this
yard sale will go to their Jimmy Fund Walk, occurring this September. Their
goal is to raise and donate at least $1,000 to the Jimmy Fund Walk. This is
a great way for the Lights and the community to say thank you to the Jimmy
Fund and Dana Farber Cancer Institute, as it has been Ali Light’s lifeline
to her exceptional cancer care and treatment.

Items at the sale will include kid’s clothing, toys, household items,
sporting equipment, a swing set, furniture, home décor and home
furnishings.

If you’re unable to attend the yard sale and you’d like to make a donation
directly to Amanda Light’s page –
http://www.jimmyfundwalk.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=1119001&lis=1&kntae1119001=B2AAF8CD0312418598FF0423E05939F7&supId=419855142&_ga=1.30107708.2089845171.1439264421

Come on over and shop this Saturday! Thank you.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

The calendar page turns to August and almost immediately my perception of
the summer changes. The information in the following e-blast certainly
adds to the feeling that the ocean is warmer, the sun hangs differently in
the sky, and my children might need school supplies! (Noooooooooo!) :)

Kindergarten School Bus Orientation at Library

The library’s annual school bus orientation will be held on Thursday,
August 27. Children who will be entering kindergarten in the fall can meet
a bus driver, learn about bus rules and go for a ride. Come at 10:30 a.m.
to listen to some stories about school buses; the bus will arrive at eleven
o’clock. There will be a brief trip to both elementary schools and then
back to the library.

Please register from the Calendar page of the library’s website,
www.hanovermass.com/library. For more information, call 781-826-2972,
extension 4, or email the children’s librarian at lcampbell@ocln.org.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

American Red Cross heroes come in all shapes and sizes. They don’t wear
capes or special suits, and their badge of honor is the bandage that shows
they gave the “gift of life.” The Red Cross encourages eligible donors
to become hometown heroes and answer the call of patients in need by
donating blood.

Donating blood is one of the simplest things a person can do to help save a
patient’s life. For the hour it takes to give blood, there could be a
whole community of people thankful for another birthday given to their
loved one.

Upcoming blood donation opportunity:

July 29, 2015, 2:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. at Hanover Town Hall, 550 Hanover
Street

How to donate blood
Simply download the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit
redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) to make an
appointment or for more information. All blood types are needed to ensure a
reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or driver’s license or
two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who
are 17 years of age (16 with parental consent in some states), weigh at
least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate
blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger
also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

About the American Red Cross
The American Red Cross shelters, feeds and provides emotional support to
victims of disasters; supplies about 40 percent of the nation’s blood;
teaches skills that save lives; provides international humanitarian aid;
and supports military members and their families. The Red Cross is a
not-for-profit organization that depends on volunteers and the generosity
of the American public to perform its mission. For more information, please
visit redcross.org or visit them on Twitter at @RedCross, or e-mail
leah.mclean@redcross.org .
