Preschool Openings!


Now is the time to think about enrolling your child in preschool.  The Center School in Northwood is accepting registrations for the 2011-2012 school year.  The Center School is a parent cooperative preschool located next to the Town Hall in Northwood, which provides a developmental program for three, four, and five year olds of Northwood and surrounding towns.  There are openings in our two-day (T/Th) program and three-day (M/W/F) morning programs.  Call us soon and come to visit!  For information, please call director Karen Andersen at the school at 942-7686.




Maundy Thursday Service will be held on Thursday, April 21, at 6:30 pm at the First Baptist Church of Northwood on Route 4 (next to Hannaford’s).  All are welcome to attend this service of remembrance.



Easter Morning Sunrise Service will be held on Sunday, April 27, at 6:30 am in the cemetery behind the First Baptist Church of Northwood (next to Hannaford’s), followed by breakfast in the Fellowship Hall.  Cost is a free will offering.


CHANGE OF TIME

Easter Sunday Worship Service at the First Baptist Church of Northwood will be at 9 am for Easter Sunday morning ONLY.  Come and worship with us and celebrate the victory of Christ’s resurrection.

 


 

Chesley Memorial Library News


The Chesley Memorial Library will offer new hours beginning May 2, 2011.


The new hours are part of an ongoing effort to offer accessible hours that are easy to remember.  The library will be open on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 10:00 am until 7:00 pm and on Saturdays from 10:00 am until 1:00 pm.  The Board of Library Trustees balanced requests for extended hours on Tuesday and more consistent hours along with the need to provide better staff coverage without going over budget.  They also tracked attendance records before determining what the new hours should be. 


It takes time to get used to any schedule changes so please let the library staff and trustees know what you think about the new hours.  We hope the new hours will meet the needs of all community members from preschool to adult and look forward to seeing you at the library soon!

 


 

Letter


As a mass of people gathered outside the State House today, protesting bad bills already passed, and a Budget proposal that will tear at the economic, social and environmental fabric of NH, I went to a public hearing on a bill recently passed by the House that would repeal the NH Rail Authority. As a planner, I’ve been frustrated by this bill, which says NH doesn’t need to study whether rail could work for Nashua and the towns and cities to the north of it.


The bill’s sponsor, Rep. Dan McGuire of Epsom, proposes to send the $4 million for the study back to the federal government, - as a waste of taxpayer money. Is he so well informed about transportation planning and traffic issues facing this State that he knows there is no need for railroad tracks and cars, whether for passenger rail or freight rail ? 
Does he understand NH’s economic future so well that he has determined that rail isn’t needed to keep NH economically competitive?


Is Rep McGuire so well informed about the needs of his neighbors, in Epsom, Northwood, Concord, that he knows they don‘t want, and perhaps need another way to get around, - a way they don’t have to buy for thousands of dollars, put new tires on, buy insurance for, or pay $4 a gallon to run? 


Listening to Rep McGuire today before the Senate Transportation Committee, criticizing rail as a  subsidized form of transportation (which all other forms of transportation are as well, in one way or another), I wondered what his true agenda was in seeing HB218 pass.  And  I wondered how much he cares about the future of this State and its people, beyond his own narrow agenda.
