In keeping with today&#8217;s holiday, I offer the<br \/>\nfollowing e-mail which came to me from Libby Corbo, the generous soul who<br \/>\nwas behind last week&#8217;s Halloween candy collection for the troops:<\/p>\n<p>Just thought I would give you an update on the candy collection for the<br \/>\ntroops!   The response was tremendous &#8211; we have collected over 140 POUNDS of<br \/>\ncandy!    I have ordered 20 boxes from the post office, which we should<br \/>\neasily fill.   As soon as I receive the boxes from the post office, Janine<br \/>\nHardman (my neighbor) and I will pack them full and ship them off.   Tuzik<br \/>\nBoston, a local company, has generously offered to ship a few boxes and I&#8217;ve<br \/>\ncollected almost $75 in donations for shipping from generous individuals.<br \/>\nWe have enough donations to ship about 12 boxes.   I am still looking for<br \/>\nmore donations to defray some of the shipping costs for the remaining candy.<br \/>\nThere is now a jar at the John Curtis Library for donations.   The Library<br \/>\nstaff has been amazing and I am so grateful for their help in collecting the<br \/>\ncandy.     We have two local soldiers that we are shipping to and are still<br \/>\nlooking for names and addresses of local soldiers who would like a package.<br \/>\nThank you for your assistance &#8211; the result was more than I could have ever<br \/>\nhoped for!  <\/p>\n<p>If you would like to suggest the name of a Hanover soldier who would like to<br \/>\nreceive a box of Hanover Halloween candy, please simply e-mail Libby Corbo<br \/>\nat elizacorbo@hotmail.com .<\/p>\n<p>For &quot;Around Town on the Web&quot;,<\/p>\n<p>Cathy H-B<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Around Town on the Web&quot; is a community service that has been provided to<br \/>\nself-selected residents of the Town of Hanover since the spring of 2004.
