Harper Lee and “Mockingbird” discussion

Dear fellow Hanoverians:
The news that Harper Lee has a second novel coming out is exciting for many
readers. To Kill a Mockingbird, her only other novel, published in 1960,
is regarded as one of the twentieth century’s most influential books.
The 1962 film adaptation is held in similar esteem among twentieth century
movies.
In anticipation of the July publication of Lee’s new work, Go Set a
Watchman, Hanover’s John Curtis Library will hold a four week discussion
group focusing on Lee, the author herself, on her famous novel To Kill a
Mockingbird, and on the classic film.
The program runs on the following four Wednesdays in May at 7:00 p.m.:
May 6
May 13
May 20
May 27
There is no charge for the program. Participants will receive a copy of To
Kill a Mockingbird, which the group will read and discuss over the four
meetings.
Registration is required as the group will be limited. Register in the
library or by calling 781-826-2972. For more information, please contact
lwelsh@ocln.org .

Register to vote by April 14th!

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Hanover Town Clerk Catherine Harder-Bernier announced that Tuesday, April
14th is the last day to register to vote in the upcoming Annual Town
Meeting and Annual Town Election. The Town Clerk/Registrar’s Office will
be open from 8:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. on the 14th.

Any Hanover citizen who will be eighteen on or before Election Day,
Saturday May 9th, is encouraged to register to vote on that day. Citizens
may conveniently register to vote by mail or in person. If residents choose
to register by mail they should download the “Massachusetts Mail-In Voter
Registration Form” from www.sec.state.ma.us 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.

“I firmly believe that your vote never counts more than at a local
election. Handfuls of residents have decided scores of town races over the
years, and those same newly elected officials have a direct impact on our
daily lives. New residents and high school students who have just turned
18 are particularly encouraged to be a part of the voting process. It’s
a sacred gift from our forefathers in this democratic society,” said
Harder-Bernier.

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.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

The full day of activities, sponsored by the Hanover Cultural Council in
cooperation with many local organizations and area businesses, is a beloved
tradition among residents of all ages. All money raised by the event is
given back to community groups in the form of grants for the arts,
sciences, and humanities. A special preview of the fun-filled carnival
will take place again this year on Friday evening, June 19.

Recipients of cultural council grants include the Hanover Public Schools,
the John Curtis Free Library, Council on Aging, Hanover Historical Society,
and Hanover Public Schools dramatic arts programs, Mass Audubon, and area
museums.
As in the past, Hanover Day will feature artisan crafts, demonstrations,
games and activities for all ages, great food, live music and dancing by
local performers, and an incredible fireworks display over Hanover Center.
Approximately 10,000 people attend the event, and organizers are expecting
many more to join this year’s celebration, which will run from 10 a.m. to
11 p.m. at B. Everett Hall/Sylvester Field on Route 139.

To help support such a large undertaking, the planning committee has
developed several sponsorship levels and is inviting local businesses to
help underwrite the musical and dance performances, kids’ activities, and
more.

Local businesses and individuals are encouraged to support Hanover Day by
choosing a level of sponsorship that suits their promotional budgets. The
exposure of being involved with Hanover Day is unbeatable! For more details
on the opportunities available, contact Nancy Devlin,
nancydevlin@hanoverday.com, 781-789-4022, or Jeannie Hickey,
