Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Just when you started to worry that Christmas was coming because of that
last e-mail that announced Santa’s impending arrival, this ought to allay
the pressure a bit with some Thanksgiving news for Hanover residents!

The Hanover Clergy Association invites all of Hanover to gather at the First
Congregational Church located at 547 Hanover Street for a Thanksgiving
Service on Monday, November 22nd. The service will be held at 7:30 p.m.
with fellowship time in Riley Hall to follow. The clergy of Hanover
requests that food donations of nonperishable items be brought that evening
to support the food pantry.

Interested in singing? A rehearsal will be held prior to the service at
6:30 p.m. in the church.

Come join your fellow Hanoverians to give thanks and to help support the
food pantry. For more information, please contact Elizabeth Wheatley Dyson

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Hanover Youth Athletic Association is pleased to offer an 8
week, 16 session youth wrestling program for students in grades 5-8.  No
previous wrestling experience is needed.  The focus of the program is to teach
the fundamentals of wrestling and allow your child to experience the thrill of
a competitive sport that teaches them skills like body control, body awareness
and quick reaction that will help your child excel in other sports such as
football, soccer, track and much more.

The
program begins on December 3, 2010 and runs through February 6, 2011 at
the Hanover Police Boys Club located behind the John Curtis Free
Library.  Sessions will be held on Friday nights from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.
and Sundays from 1:00 – 3:00 p.m.  The program will be geared toward
students in grades 5-8, but younger students may be allowed to enroll if space
permits.  Cost for the program will be $100 for the 16 sessions.  Wrestlers
will need to provide their own headgear, wrestling shoes and singlet. 

Coaching
will rely on volunteers from the community.  If you are interested in helping
to coach, please contact Peter Frank at the e-mail address below.  No coaching
experience is necessary.  As the season progresses, they may participate
in local/regional wrestling tournaments depending on the interest in the
program.  They will also bring in guest coaches to assist in teaching more
advanced wrestling concepts.  On-line enrollment will be available from
November 1st through November 26th at www.hyaa.net
and in-person registrations will take place at the Middle School
Cafeteria on November 9th and November 16th from
7:00 – 8:30 pm.  More information regarding the program is available at http://www.hyaa.net/wrestling. php

For
any questions, please contact Peter Frank at pc.frank@comcast.net
.  HYAA looks forward to this exciting new program and hopes to see you
there.  HYAA is a non-profit volunteer organization that provides sports
programs to Hanover’s youth from grades K through 8.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

The Hanover High School Music Department is raising money to
defray the cost of a trip to an Annapolis and Baltimore Maryland Music Festival
Tour for the students in the music programs this spring.  As a result,
they will be running several Pizzeria Uno’s fundraising nights over the
next few weeks.  Seems like good timing as the holidays are almost upon us
and take-out is surely helpful on those busy nights!  Print out the coupon
found here at http://atotw.com/files/unos.pdf and
mark your calendar now for the following dates:

Friday, November 19th and Saturday, November 20th

Tuesday, December 14th

In addition to dining in or regular take-out, you can also
order pre-made, uncooked pizzas and then cook them later at home.  For
more information, please contact Michelle Sweeney at msween03@verizon.net .

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

The following letter was recently sent to me by the good folks
at the Hanover Foundation:

The Hanover Foundation for Educational Enrichment has
recently sent out its annual mailing asking residents to support the many
exciting and innovative programs the Foundation funds as part of its grants
program.  Please consider making a donation. We need your support! It is through
the community’s financial support that this organization continues to
thrive and grow.   The HFEE is a volunteer, non-profit organization with a
broad mission to foster excellence and innovation in the education of young
people in the Hanover schools.   Since its inception in 1991, the Foundation
has raised over $170,000 for enrichment of the curriculum to benefit students
at all grade levels. Through its competitive grants program each fall, teachers
are eligible to receive grant funding for new and innovative proposals. Grants
are selected for educational purposes only and are not used to cover salary or
administrative costs. Projects are funded which are not normally included in
the school budget. These grants enhance the educational opportunities for Hanover’s
students and are not meant as a substitute for community funding. Our
commitment to excellence has been possible because of the loyal support of
people like you.

Recent Grants funded by the HFEE have included:

The Foundation believes that a commitment to a strong and
vibrant educational system benefits the entire Hanover community – its
residents, businesses, and, most importantly, its children. We strive to
facilitate projects like these every year, but we cannot do this alone. Your
donation of time, money, and/or services, demonstrates that you share this
belief.  You may send your tax-deductible donation to: Hanover Foundation
for Educational Enrichment, P.0. Box 1144, Hanover, MA 02339 (ID#
043161682).

Sincerely,

Larry DiNardo, President

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

She’s an institution.  She’s an icon. 
She’s a trailblazer.  She’s a role model.  She should be
our “Coach of the Year”.

For over 40 years, Judy Schneider has coached varsity field
hockey in the town of Hanover.  She coached basketball for a few decades,
too.  I had the distinct privilege of being her freshman coach for about 5
years in the mid-1990’s and can tell you that she taught me all of the
foundations that I have ever needed in my current career.  She has molded
countless lives and won hundreds and hundreds of games.  Legions of
Hanover’s women are proud to call her their Coach.

It doesn’t get any better than Judy Schneider. 
Please join me in voting for her as the boston.com “Coach of the Year”. 
Coach Schneider had been
nominated by Erika Stearns as a coach of the year in a Boston Globe contest.  The
winner will get a visit from Paul Pierce to the school.  The winner will be
determined by the number of votes.  Go to this page to start the process:

http://www.boston.com/yourtown/?p1=3DGN_yourtown

A short way
down on the page and on the right side is a graphic with Paul Pierce on it that
says "Vote Now." Click on that link and it will take you to the pages
describing the coaches who have been nominated.  Judy is on page 5, and
wearing a yellow sweater.  I had trouble with the website, and found that I
needed to click on the “click for more…” link on the right
hand side of Judy’s (and all the other) pages to see why she was nominated
(not that I questioned it…I was actually just checking out the
competition!).  Votes are made and taken on page 7.

She
deserves OUR votes.  Our town is lucky to have her in our midst. 
Please vote TODAY.  And thanks, Judy, for all you have done and continue
to do.  Regardless of the outcome, you have no equal.
