Help a Hanover child receive an autism assistance dog

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Hanover residents Allison Taylor and her husband Chris sent along the
following information. They are reaching out on behalf of their daughter.
Ella is a rising eighth grader. You may have seen her on the fields at
Forge Pond, walking with her Daisy Troop in the Memorial Day parade,
performing in the annual nativity play at the First Congregational Church
or reading in the window seat at the library.

They are seeking our communities support in getting an autism assistance
dog for Ella. After an exhaustive search, they chose to collaborate with
Little Angels Service Dogs based on their adherence to high training
standards, track record, and testimonials. Each dog’s training is
personalized to help their individual handlers needs and every dollar
donated goes directly to the training and placement of service dogs.

Ella has completed the rigorous approval process, and the family is now
transitioning to the fundraising stage. Families are responsible for
fundraising so that monies raised go directly to connecting dogs with
participants rather than supporting a fundraising staff. They are looking
to the community to help Ella reach her fundraising goal of $30,000. It is
humbling to ask for help, but they sadly are not able to reach this goal on
their own. As a result, they are reaching out in the hopes that you share
this post, post the attached flyer and/or donate today to help Ella achieve
her life changing goal.

Please join them! Your donation will bring them one step closer to their
goal! Please read the following letter or see the attached flyer from
Allison and Chris for more details on how you can help.

“MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN A CHILD’S LIFE
Little Angels Service Dogs have approved our daughter Ella. These dogs are
trained to perform medical alert, deep pressure therapy, and non-protective
boundary control which will be life-changing and lead to improved quality
of life and independence for Ella.
Autism is a neurological and developmental disorder that affects how people
interact with others, communicate, and learn. Ella describes it as
“Feeling anxious all the time”, “continuous sensory overload”,
“feeling misunderstood or unheard”, “pretending to be okay is
exhausting”. Having a Service Dog will change everything for Ella. Please
help us make this a reality.
Little Angels Service Dogs is a 501c3 nonprofit and an International (ADI)
accredited organization which means they rely 100% on donations from people
like you.

There are THREE ways to donate:

1. Scan the QR code on the attached flyer
Select General Fund Donation (please consider choosing a MONTHLY donation
by checking Recipient Fund, check box add note/comment and enter Ella’s
Solicitation Code) or a one-time gift
Enter the solicitation code PA-TA-EL in the comment section. Donate any
amount your heart desires.

2. Or you can go to Ella’s Just Giving page by clicking below:

3. If you would rather send a check, you can do that as well. You can mail
a check payable to
Little Angels Service Dogs to the following address.
Just make sure you add the code PA-TA-EL in the memo of your check.
Little Angels Service Dogs
Post Office Box 219
Jamul, CA 91935

We look forward to taking you along on our journey and thank you in advance
for your love and generous support in helping to enhance Ella’s life and
the lives of individuals like Ella.
Much Love and Gratitude!
Chris, Allison and Ella”

Hanover Day parking information and map

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

With the kids out of school and the Friday night Music Fest and Hanover Day
line-ups having been announced, the excitement for Hanover Day is becoming
palpable!

Hanover Day is held at B. Everett Hall Playground, next to Sylvester
School, in the center of town. Please see the attached map with the layout
of the venue! Parking is very limited at that address, 495 Hanover Street,
and the classic cars will already be parked there. So, it’s time to plan
your parking strategy.

First, as a reminder, the senior citizen van shuttle begins at 10:00 a.m.
and picks up seniors who are parked at the COA, or residing at Legion,
Barstow, or Cushing housing complexes. See the ATOTW archives for more
details on the van shuttle.

Please note there will be no parking available on Hanover Street or Main
Street. Parking is also not allowed in the Hanover Cemetery or at Center
School. Be sure to follow the Police/DPW posted ‘No Parking’ signs as these
restrictions will be strictly enforced. Lighted signs will direct you to
parking areas in the center of town as evening falls.

Parking for Daytime Events:
Parking is available in town lots including Town Hall, the Council on Aging
and the John Curtis Library, and also Riley Hall and Briggs Stables (enter
at the Briggs’ Main Street Entrance).

Parking for Evening Events:
Hanover Day volunteers are expecting a very large turnout, particularly
Saturday evening for the fireworks. Please plan your arrival accordingly as
there is limited parking in Hanover Center. Below is a list of approved
parking areas for the evening events. Volunteers are thankful to the local
businesses who have made their parking lots available for the event. Please
do not park on residents’ private property and please clean up any trash
that you have so that B. Everett Hall playground and parking lots will be
left clean and neat. Police will be on site to direct traffic.
Saturday Night Parking is available at:
• Hanover Town Hall and the John Curtis Library – 550 and 534 Hanover
Street
• Briggs Stables – Main Street entrance – gates will be open with police
directing traffic
• Riley Hall – 17 Silver Street
• Silver Street – Southbound side only
