Dear fellow Hanoverians:

The Hanover Emergency Food Pantry is always very grateful for the wonderful
support received throughout the year. Special recognition is however due to
six very hard working youngsters who organized a neighborhood lemonade stand
in order to raise money to help people in need in Hanover. They donated
their entire proceeds because they wanted to make a difference in their
community. The good folks who run the Hanover Food Pantry want to extend
their sincere appreciation to Abby McGillivray, Olivia and John Benevides,
Anna Lyons, and Patrick and Kayla Mullane. Through their efforts, they have
collectively raised $51.88, which will indeed help Hanover families in need.
We are all very touched by the thoughtfulness and generosity of these young
people.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Join author Christopher Klein for a slide show tour of Boston Harbor Islands
this Tuesday at the John Curtis Library. Mr. Klein pays tribute to the role
the harbor islands have played in the growth, protection, and culture of
Boston. He includes stories of the countless new Englanders who lived and
toiled on the island shores:

. native Americans who seasonally camped on the islands

. wealthy Bostonians who turned the islands into their own private
playgrounds

. sick and poor incarcerated on the islands during public health
epidemics and

. island-bound prisoners of war.

This program will take place on Tuesday, October 6 at 7:00 p.m. in the
library. There is no charge for admission and refreshments will be served.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Remember that it is still possible to sign your child up for spring soccer

details regarding spring soccer tryouts!

(grades 7/8) will be held on Saturday October 24th, and Sunday October 25th,
at the Hanover Bandstand/B. Everett Hall Field. Please arrive 10 minutes
before your scheduled time.

Groupings are based on date of birth and are as follows:

Boys U12(born between 8/1/97 and 7/31/99) – Sat. Oct. 24 @ 12:00-1:30 PM

Girls U12(born between 8/1/97 and 7/31/99) – Sat. Oct. 24 @ 1:45-3:15 PM

Boys U14(born between 8/1/95 and 7/31/97) – Sat. Oct. 24 @ 3:30-5:00 PM

Girls U14(born between 8/1/95 and 7/31/97) – Sun. Oct. 25 @ 8:30-10:00 AM

**players with August birthdays in years ’95, ’97, or ’99 may elect to "play
up" with their classmates

Rain date is the following weekend, Oct. 31st and Nov. 1st , same place,
time and schedule. Check the HYAA website for weather postponement
(www.hyaa.net ). Kids need to bring a soccer ball and water bottle. They
must wear shin guards. Cleats are recommended. Everyone in grades 5 – 8
registered to play HYAA soccer next spring should attend. Everyone who
registers will be assigned to a team.

***Tryouts are for 5th-8th graders only.***
