Dear fellow Hanoverians:
\nIt\u2019s hard to believe that Christmas is just two short months away.
\nAs many of you know, last year the Friends of the Stetson House merged
\nwith the Hanover Historical Society to become one organization. This
\nyear will be the first year that the Hanover Historical Society will
\nhost a Christmas program. While the town cherishes the memories the
\nFriends of the Stetson House gave us over the years, the Historical
\nSociety hopes to make the program their own, while adding different
\ntouches.
\nThe program will be a Festival of Trees. The event will focus on
\nhistoric themes to educate the public. For the past few months, the
\nHanover Historical Society has been working on creating a new room
\nlayout at their headquarters, the Stetson House Museum. This Museum of
\nHanover History will feature a chronological tour with exhibits that
\nare time period accurate and interactive. This year\u2019s program will
\nhave very moderate Christmas decorations, allowing the museum exhibits
\nand collection to shine through. The tour will have costumed guides in
\nmuseum rooms talking about Christmas in Hanover\u2019s past.
\nInstead of decorating the Stetson House, they are asking families,
\norganizations, and corporations to decorate and donate an artificial
\nChristmas tree of their choosing. This Christmas tree will then be
\nraffled off on the Sunday of the program. Proceeds will go towards the
\nmission of the Hanover Historical Society. Museum staff will be happy
\nto help regarding possible themes for your tree. They hope you will
\njoin them in decorating a tree, and celebrating in the season of
\nwarmth and giving.
