On Thursday, January 27th at 12:30 p.m. at the Pittsfield Area Senior Center, “Prescription Brown Bag” Massachusetts College of Pharmacy Professor, Alicia Desilets and graduate students will answer questions you have about your medications.  Call 435-8482 to make an appointment, and on the 27th, bring your prescription medications with you.




Brandon Giuda, one of our State Representatives, reports that the session has begun with much hard work, including trying to deal with a $600+ million deficit.  The Speaker of the House personally asked him to serve on the Judiciary Committee, and he has accepted that assignment.  He believes communication is very important and invites us all to contact him at [email protected] (subject line “CONSTITUENT”), or call him at 435-5005.  Also, if you are interested in receiving email updates about issues, letters, happenings, etc., let him know so he can add you to his email list.



Now is the time to visit the Town Hall and sign up to have your name on the ballot for one of the various town and school district offices, which need to be filled each year. The filing period will end on January 28. There is no fee for filing, and it would be a fine thing if there were candidates, or even a choice of candidates, for every office so the voters were not racking their brains for names to write in when the time comes to vote in March. How about signing up to be one of the Trustees of Trust Funds?



The following titles were recently added to the adult fiction section at the Chichester Town Library: Hot Pursuit by Suzanne Brockmann, Hangman by Faye Kellerman (Large Print), American Wife by Curtis Sittenfeld, Christmas with Tucker by Greg Kinacaid (LP), Corduroy Mansions by Alexander McCall Smith (Mys. LP), The Distant Hours by Kate Morton (LP), Hell’s Corner by David Baldacci, The Postcard by Beverly Lewis, and The Confession by John Grishman.


 

The Cub Scouts of Pack 85 in Chichester would like to extend a big thank you to our special guest, Tim Patterson! Mr. Patterson taught the boys about Native American crafts including wampum beads at our January 7th Pack Meeting. The boys especially enjoyed creating their own wampum bead art work using Mr. Patterson’s hand-crafted looms, beads, and authentic Native American patterns. As a payment for his services, Mr. Patterson only asked that the Cub Scouts would bring canned and boxed food items. He and his wife donated these to the Chichester Food Pantry. What a fantastic evening! Thanks, Mr. P!

Letter


Voters wanted a change; I get that, but do representatives: Guida, MacDonald and Seaworth understand we care about jobs and our economy?


Why are they focused on removing a Representative because he wants to pass a minimum wage law and why was their very first vote, to allow guns in our State House gallery? 


Two years ago when our 4th graders came for their tour of the State House, it was terrifying.  As my custom as a legislator, I visited their classroom to help them understand and experience legislation.  The next day, there was a group in the gallery who were anti-government and who staged a demonstration and brandished their weapons at us lawmakers sitting below. We were locked in and not allowed to visit our students and be assured of their safety.


I told Brandon Guida this story, but it was important for him to have his first vote to bring guns back to our State House. I believe in the right to bear arms, but NOT in our schools, courts and our state offices. I have experienced first hand threats because I cast certain votes.


Mr. MacDonald, Guida and Seaworth, listen to your voters and please focus on our economy, jobs and what makes NH such a great state including the safety of our elected officials.

Harris Family Furniture Supports American Cancer Society


Harris Family Furniture, with locations in Chichester, Plymouth and Laconia, presented a check yesterday for $1,200 to the American Cancer Society’s Making Strides for Breast Cancer.


The donation was born of a promotion done by Harris Family Furniture.  During the month of December, when a customer made a donation of $50 at the store to the American Cancer Society, they received $200 off the purchase price of a Stressless brand recliner at any Harris Family Furniture location. Because the promotion was such a success, Harris has extended its offer through January 17, 2011.


“This effort was such a success and we are thrilled to have made such a significant donation to the American Cancer Society,” said Bill Harris, president of Harris Family Furniture. “With the support of Ekornes Inc., the manufacturer of Stressless, we were able to offer this thank you for our customers charitable giving during the holidays.”


Established in 1934 in Sunnmore, Norway, Ekornes is the largest furniture manufacturer in Scandinavia. The company’s products include Stressless® recliners, sofas, loveseats and accessories. The world-famous Stressless® recliner features a patented system that adjusts automatically, allowing body weight to determine the proper level of support.


Harris Family Furniture, one of New Hampshire’s leading furniture retailers, is a fourth-generation company founded in 1965. They offer free delivery through most of New Hampshire. For more information visit www.harrisfamilyfurniture.com
