Donations to the Library Book Room on pause

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

THE FRIENDS OF THE JOHN CURTIS LIBRARY HAVE ANNOUNCED THAT THEY WILL PAUSE
ACCEPTING ANY DONATIONS TO THE BOOK ROOM FOR FOUR WEEKS, BEGINNING ON APRIL
7TH.

The Friends are a small group of volunteers who work in the book room to
sort through and shelve donations and generally keep the room looking neat
and welcoming. Sadly, the volunteers have noted a large increase in the
number of unsellable donations being left in the room and are having to
deal with disposing of these items.

The Friends hope that this pause in accepting donations, as well as
clarification of guidelines for donations, will allow their volunteers to
continue to keep the book room appealing to the customers that they very
much appreciate! They will reopen for donations on May 5th.

Donation guidelines:
Books and puzzles in good, sellable condition. No musty, moldy, dusty,
torn, or ancient items! Please donate only items that you yourself would
purchase!

For more information, please contact Sandy Hayes at
sandyhayes1016@gmail.com .

Hanover Energy Choice Public Information Sessions

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Hanover Energy Choice Public Information Sessions

Hanover residents are invited to attend a Hanover Energy Choice Public
Information Forum to learn more about our community’s municipal electric
aggregation program and how it impacts you. The Town will be hosting two
sessions, both in-person and virtually:
• Monday, April 7, 2025, at 6:30 p.m. at the Hanover Town Hall, 550
Hanover Street
• Wednesday, April 16, 2025, from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Hanover
Council on Aging, 665 Center Street

These forums will provide valuable information about the Hanover Energy
Choice program, including how it works, your options, and the benefits it
offers to residents and businesses.

Hanover Energy Choice offers three options for the electricity supply price
on your National Grid bill. As a new participant, you will be automatically
enrolled for 30 months in Hanover Standard at $0.13107 per kwh, which is
the lowest-priced option in the program. Or you can make another choice.
Hanover Greener, at $0.13897 per kwh provides an additional 20% of your
electricity from renewable sources. Hanover Greenest, at $0.14300 per kwh
provides 100% of your electricity from renewable sources. Make the choice
that is right for you!

Hanover Energy Choice offers long-term prices, while National Grid’s
prices change seasonally. Use the price calculator found here:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=aAThxLL0ajiaOdTW8mYF2Th3NE2bzs3JowOt6SjxuHZoqLt7nDM4RqoN783ZLADJ

Christopher Tracy for School Committee Kick Off Event

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Christopher Tracy for School Committee Kick Off Event

WHEN: Saturday, April 5 from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at
WHERE: Sullivan’s Hanover Crossing – 1775 Washington Street

Come join Christopher Tracy’s campaign kickoff – meet and greet the
candidate event at Sullivan’s Hanover Crossing on April 5th! Swing by and
say hello, grab a bite, ice cream or a drink as you’re running your
Saturday errands! Bring the kids too!

Christopher’s Committee is especially excited to announce that all proceeds
raised will not go to his campaign but will instead go directly to the
Hanover PTA – benefiting all of our kids through their great work! Just
mention “Hanover PTA/Chris Tracy event” to your Sully’s server and
10% of proceeds will go directly to the PTA!

Come learn about Christopher’s vision to help bring advocacy, leadership
and balance to the School Committee. Our schools losing 36 positions last
year and the fact that Kristina and Christopher have a kindergartener and
second grader is the reason that he’s chosen to get involved – he wants to
be part of the solution! Swing by his time and begin working together to
make Hanover schools the best they can be!”

For more information, please contact Committee Treasurer David Kelly at
electchristophertracycommittee@gmail.com .
