Happy Birthday to Cheryl Difronzo on February 8 and Patrick Jarvis on February 12.

 


 

Chichester’s Old Home Day will be August 18 this year. The theme is "Under the Big Top." The Old Home Day Committee is seeking additional person power both for committee meetings and on Old Home Day itself. Workers are needed for set-up and clean-up, for food service, for parking, for trash pick-up, and for supervising children’s games. Contact Hannah West or Donna Chagnon if you can help. The next Old Home Day Committee meeting will be Thursday, February 16 at 7 p.m. at the Fire Station.

 


 

Now is the time to set aside the first two Saturdays in March for School District Meeting and Town Meeting. Please make your plans accordingly. Attending these meetings keeps citizens aware of what is going on in their town.

 


 

Doug and Sally Kelly have been working for the past several weeks on "The Philadelphia Story" which is being performed by the Community Players of Concord this weekend. Tickets are available on-line at www.communityplayers.org. This can be a great Valentine treat and when you’re watching, note how well things were constructed by Doug and how all the cues are on time, thanks in part to Sally’s role as Stage Manager!

Hurry In! Valentines Day is February 14th and everyone has someone who would like to receive a little gift. It doesn’t have to cost a bundle, it’s just the sentiment. All our Valentine merchandise is ½ price through Valentines Day! Cards, bud vases, cute little stuffed animals, we have it.

 

Some items you wouldn’t think would be on our 2011 Giving List include: 6 prom dresses; 40 VHS movies for boy’s school; 1 guitar for boy’s school; and 20 bags of rags for a scarecrow festival. Some of our regular items included: 59 families assisted with home goods; 47 packages of diapers; 23 families assisted with baby equipment needs; and 28 warm-up kits for homeless.

 

As most of you know, we’re down to one store. We need your support now more than ever to keep these good works going. We could use an infusion of household goods, as we have given out many items already this January.

Chichester Grange

 

Chichester Grange met on Wednesday, February 1st, upstairs in the Grange Hall. Valerie Merrill of Allenstown was a visitor who is thinking of becoming reinvolved in Grange.

 

Wonderful thank-you notes were received from the third grade students at Epsom Central School who received dictionaries in December. The dictionaries were paid for by the Epsom Circle Restaurant and presented by members of Chichester Grange.

 

The Charter was draped in loving memory of Russell MacCleery, a 75 year Grange member. Resolutions will be sent to members of his family.

 

Fred Carlson received a 55 year membership seal. Other membership awards are in the hands of the secretary and will be presented in the near future.

 

Plans were discussed for holding a Penny Sale in March. The proceeds would benefit charitable causes which Chichester Grange supports.

 

The program was on the topic of February, a very interesting month in terms of its calendar. Leap year was discussed, including the existence of a "leap-skip year" which happens when the number of the year can be divided by 100 but not by 400. There was one in 1900 and the next one will be in 2100. Many special days, both serious and silly, fall in February. Hula in the Coola Day falls on February first. February is National Bird Watching Month, and state and national bird counts are taken then.

 

Following the meeting, refreshments were provided by Alice and Ina Hilliard. There is only one meeting of Chichester Grange in February. The next meeting will be March 7.
