Several community members attended a genealogical workshop given by Tylene Jousse (sitting 5th from the right) and Judy Ericksen (center) on behalf of the Else Cilley Chapter, NSDAR, at the chapter owned Nottingham Square Schoolhouse, a National Registered Historic Building. After a general introduction to genealogical research where several hints were given, Tylene and Judy assisted attendees individually. Women interested in joining the DAR are encouraged to attend an Else Cilley meeting. We will be participating in the Nottingham Days celebrations with a booth on Saturday, September 18th. The DAR is a non-profit, non-political volunteer women’s service organization dedicated to promoting patriotism, preserving American history and securing America’s future through education. The public is always welcome to attend. For more information, visit our website, www.freewebs.com/ecilleydar.




Letter

 

Holding signs at the polls, I came back over and over to President Obama’s speech at the Democratic National Convention this year. The words he spoke that hit me the hardest were the words about citizenship: “...a word at the very heart of our founding, a word at the very essence of our democracy, the idea that this country only works when we accept certain obligations to one another and to future generations.”

 

He went on to talk about our shared responsibilities: “We, the people, recognize that we have responsibilities as well as rights; that our destinies are bound together; that a freedom which asks only, what’s in it for me, a freedom without a commitment to others, a freedom without love or charity or duty or patriotism, is unworthy of our founding ideals, and those who died in their defense.”

 

One of the most important duties of citizenship is to vote.  But even before we vote, doing our homework is essential. We live in an age of information. There is a wealth of information out there, in our libraries, on the Internet, in our newspapers, and from our candidates. At least I hope that our candidates will be providing information about themselves!

 

In 2010 we elected many candidates whose agendas and priorities surprised and alarmed us.  Whether it be laws about guns, radical budget cuts, attacks on women’s healthcare or any of the many other bills that weren’t what most of us were expecting, we bear some responsibility for them. We didn’t do our homework.

 

We are all proud to be Americans. Let’s pledge to each other to take up the responsibilities of citizenship. Let’s promise each other to cast educated and thoughtful votes.

Letter To The Editor

 

I would like to introduce myself as a candidate for State Representative for the Town of Northwood. My name is Bruce Hodgdon and I am a native of Northwood where I have attended Brookside School in the Northwood Narrows, Northwood Elementary School and Coe-Brown Academy.  My wife Sherry and I have two children, a son David, daughter Jen, and six delightful grand-children.

 

I am president of Hodgdon & Son, Inc., a construction company you may have noticed on projects for the Town of Northwood, Northwood Elementary School, Coe-Brown Academy, Northwood Meadows, Northwood Fire Department, road grading in Northwood and many other projects in the surrounding communities.

 

I believe in limited government, fiscal responsibility, reducing regulatory burdens on small business and homeowners, protecting individual liberties and improving state government efficiency. By achieving these goals we will see increases in paychecks, small business growth and the confidence to return workers to the work place and hire new workers. I would be honored to represent the Town of Northwood and ask the residents to consider placing their trust in me to represent them.  I encourage you to contact me with any input or questions you may have. Please e-mail me at [email protected] or by phone at 942-5264.

Northwood, NH
