It will be held Saturday, May 13, 2017.  There will be a<br \/>\ncombination of food drive volunteers and postal service workers making the<br \/>\nrounds. The Hanover Food Pantry is in serious need of volunteers on that<br \/>\nday again this year.  What better way to support residents of our town in<br \/>\nneed?  Please consider volunteering at the food pantry!  It is also a great<br \/>\nway for those who need service hours to accrue some time for a good cause.<\/p>\n<p>The good folks at the Hanover Food Pantry need:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Drivers and gatherers (beginning as early as 10:30 a.m. or anytime up<br \/>\nthrough 3:30 p.m.) to go out on assigned routes for food pick-up.  Take a<br \/>\nlong route or a short route, no matter what; your help will be appreciated.<br \/>\nYou\u2019ll be given a map, and you will bring the food you gather back to the<br \/>\npantry.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Sorters to be stationed at the pantry from 11:30 a.m. through 5:30<br \/>\np.m., in two hour shifts. Feel free to stay as long as you like.

The food that is<br \/>\ngathered each year at the Postal Workers Annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive<br \/>\nsees those in need through the summer when the churches, civic<br \/>\norganizations, schools and other groups stop or slow their regular<br \/>\ncollections.  Your support will be greatly appreciated.<br \/>\nRegardless of your ability to volunteer to help that day, please don\u2019t<br \/>\nforget to donate your food to the town-wide drive on May 13th!  <\/p>\n<p>Thank you.<br \/>\nSally Lovett Boutin<br \/>\nFood Pantry President<\/p>\n<p>For &#8220;Around Town on the Web&#8221;,<br \/>\nCathy H-B<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<br \/>\n&#8220;Around Town on the Web&#8221; (&#8220;ATOTW&#8221;) has been a valued push notification<br \/>\nsince the spring of 2004 &#8211; long before there were push notifications!<\/p>\n<p>For submission guidelines and answers to frequently asked questions<br \/>\nabout &#8220;ATOTW&#8221;, please go to http:\/\/www.atotw.com.<br \/>\nTo search for archived &#8220;ATOTW&#8221; news, view the archive<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\nIf you would like to be added to this distribution list, click here<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\nPlease follow the link in the response e-mail to validate your<br \/>\naccount.
