Dear fellow Hanoverians:
HANOVER CULTURAL COUNCIL SEEKS FUNDING PROPOSALS

Proposals for community-oriented arts, humanities, and science programs are
due October 15.
The Hanover Cultural Council has set an October 15 postmark deadline for
organizations, schools and individuals to apply for grants that support
cultural activities in the community.

According to Council spokesperson Karen Cass, these grants can support a
variety of artistic projects and activities in Hanover — including
exhibits, festivals, field trips, short-term artist residencies or
performances in schools, workshops and lectures.

The Hanover Cultural Council is part of a network of 329 Local Cultural
Councils serving all 351 cities and towns in the Commonwealth. The LCC
Program is the largest grassroots cultural funding network in the nation,
supporting thousands of community-based projects in the arts, sciences and
humanities every year. The state legislature provides an annual
appropriation to the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency, which
then allocates funds to each community.

This year, the Hanover Cultural Council will distribute about $4,300 in
grants. Previously funded projects include: “The Music Man” play at the
Hanover Middle School, “Beyond the Classroom” Art Exhibit for Teachers on
the South Shore, Theatrical Magic at the John Curtis Free Library, The
Visiting Artist Program at Center/Sylvester Schools, and Diversity Day at
the South Shore Children’s Museum, to name only a few! Of course, the
Annual Hanover Day Celebration is the Cultural Council’s largest
undertaking, and this event allows the Council to fund bigger and better
projects each year which enrich our community.

For specific guidelines and complete information on the Hanover Cultural
Council, contact Karen Cass at (781)982-0080, or karencass@comcast.net. An
application form is attached to this e-mail. Information about the Local
Cultural Council Program is available online at
http://www.mass-culture.org/lcc_public.aspx. Paper application forms are
also available at The John Curtis Free Library.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Hanover needs some energized volunteers to help out on two committees: the
Advisory Committee and the Parks and Recreation Committee. The Advisory
Committee reviews all town budgets and is responsible for making
recommendations to the Town Meeting on all Articles. If you are someone
who wants to learn about all parts of the town government and help out with
determining the right budgets, AdComm is great place to dig in. The Parks
and Recreation Committee is responsible for managing all of our recreation
programs and the park land owned by the town. Hanover has a long tradition
of very strong recreation programs and the committee and their employee,
the Recreation Administrator, manage and work to expand recreation
opportunities for citizens of all ages.

If you would like to volunteer or just learn more about these committees,
please contact Town Moderator Doug Thomson at moderator@hanover-ma.gov .

(Editor’s note: As someone who has been a member of both committees, I am
here to tell you that both were very rewarding and invigorating
experiences. AdComm is a great way for a rookie volunteer to get a broad
overview of the whole town, and Parks and Rec is just plain great fun. I
heartily encourage you to throw your hat in the ring! – CHB)

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Attached please find the unofficial election results from Tuesday’s State
Primary Election. There are two attachments, one for the Democratic Party
and one for the Republicans.

With a turnout of over 20% of registered voters, I am told we beat the
state average, which is always terrific. I do know we exceeded Secretary
of State Bill Galvin’s prediction of 15 – 20%.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me in the Town Clerk’s Office for more
information at (781) 826-5000 x1079.

HPD ANNUAL SAFETY PROGRAM and
COMMUNITY SHRED DAY

The Hanover Police Department will be hosting a Child Safety Car Seat

Along with the two Police sponsored programs, S-Bank will be hosting their

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Whether you met them at Hanover Day, at their Emergency Management Night
last spring at the High School, at a club meeting, or heard about them from
a friend or current team member, the CERT team is excited about getting to
know you, and having you join their team. Please join them for:

CERT Training
Thursday, Sept. 18, 2014 7:00 pm
Hanover Town Hall, Large Hearing Room, 1st floor

This 9 week program begins Sept 18 and will run consecutive Thursday

Upon completion of CERT training you will be better prepared to assist
others in your neighborhood or workplace following an event when
professional responders are not immediately available to help. CERT

taking a more active role in emergency preparedness projects in their
community.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Many of us are just back from vacation and have barely sent the kids back
to school, so it seems crazy that the State Primary Election is Tuesday,
September 9th, or tomorrow as I write this. Others of us have been firmly
entrenched in the debate for months and are wringing our hands about who
will actually turn out and vote tomorrow. It’s an exciting election, with
lots of great candidates, so check it out. Big decisions will be made –
will you be a part of it?

The beauty of all of this is that thanks to our veterans and forefathers,
the right to vote is a privilege that we all can take advantage of once we
are 18 and registered.

So plan now to vote tomorrow. What does your day look like? When are you
going to fit it in? The polls are open from 7:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. If you
are unenrolled and need to decide which ballot to pull, go to
http://www.sec.state.ma.us/ and click on “View my ballot”. There will also
be specimen ballots available for you to review prior to going in the
voting area.

We all vote at Hanover High School, 287 Cedar Street. See you there!

If you have questions or need more information about the State Primary,
please don’t hesitate to contact me, Cathy Harder-Bernier, Town Clerk, at
catherine.harderbernier@hanover-ma.gov or (781) 826-5000 x1079. I’ll be at
the polls all day so come ask your questions in person, or my trusty
Assistant Town Clerk JoAnne O’Connor will be sitting by the phones and
keeping the office humming.
