Chichester Grange is planning a Memorial Day Observance on May 30,
the traditional Memorial Day. It will be held at the Veterans
Memorial stone in the parking lot of the Grange/Town Hall at 6:30
p.m. In case of rain it will be held inside the Town Hall. Please
give a little time to remembering veterans past and present. The
Observance will include a little history, some inspiration, and the
placing of a memorial wreath.
Happy Birthday to Keith Davison, Jr., on June 1st and Kimberly
Harris on June 5th.
Chichester Grange will meet on Wednesday, June 5, upstairs in the
Grange Hall. The program will be “Pick a State."
Chichester’s Old Home Days this year will be Friday evening, August
16, and Saturday, August 17. The theme this year is “Happy Birthday,
Carpenter Park” in commemoration of the gift of land from the
Carpenter family in 1963. For fun and funds there will again be a
“Two Pound Table” on Saturday. Participants may buy a ticket for two
dollars and put it on a wrapped package containing something that
weighs two pounds. If your ticket is drawn, it is your luck whether
your package contains two pounds of sugar or two pounds of pennies,
just for an example. The Old Home Day Committee is asking for
donations of items weighing two pounds. They will not be collected
until August, but be thinking about what weighs two pounds as you
shop or browse.
Happy anniversary to Jason and Kelly Brudniak on June 3.
Out Of Your Attic Thrift Shop News

Our shoppers appreciate the pre-owned, the recycled, the odd, and
the great bargain. People get quite excited over a name brand tee
for $2.00! Because every single item in the store is donated by
people like you, maybe downsizing not just household but personal
too, or one who decided to “clean the kids rooms” of things they
haven’t played with in 5 years, or just have had enough clutter in
the closets, we can keep our prices very reasonable.
We still can use little boys clothes sizes 2-5. We have a great
selection of girls and women tank tops to choose from.
We are on Route 28, near the Pittsfield line and open on Mon. 8-12;
Tues. and Thurs. 8-4; Wed. 11-4 and Sat. 10-4. Call us at 247-7191.
Stroke And Osteoporosis Screenings Coming To Chichester, New Hampshire
Residents living in and around the Chichester, New Hampshire
community can be screened to reduce their risk of having a stroke or
bone fracture. Hope In Christ Church will host Life Line Screening
on 6/6/2013. The site is located at 153 Main St. in Chichester.
Ralph Caron of Tamworth, NH attended a Life Line Screening and said,
“Thanks to Life Line Screening, I have a new life to live.”
Four key points every person needs to know:
• Stroke is the third leading cause of death and a leading cause of
permanent disability.
• 80% of stroke victims had no apparent warning signs prior to their
stroke.
• Preventive ultrasound screenings can help you avoid a stroke.
• Screenings are fast, noninvasive, painless, affordable and
convenient.
Screenings identify potential cardiovascular conditions such as
blocked arteries and irregular heart rhythm, abdominal aortic
aneurysms, and hardening of the arteries in the legs, which is a
strong predictor of heart disease. A bone density screening to
assess osteoporosis risk is also offered and is appropriate for both
men and women.
Packages start at $159. All five screenings take
60-90 minutes to complete. For more information regarding the
screenings or to schedule an appointment, call 1-877-237-1287 or
visit our website at
www.lifelinescreening.com.
Pre-registration is required.
