Welcome to the Woods WELCOME TO THE WOODS June 11-13, 2019 DARTMOUTH COLLEGE, HANOVER, NH DEAN’S WELCOME The admission officers of Dartmouth are excited to welcome you to the North Woods of New Hampshire for Ivy+ 2019. As you join us in Hanover in early June, it’s easy to understand why “Big Green” is such a perfect description of your northernmost peer. Our campus of pines and maples—and the river valley and mountains that envelope it—are at their viridescent best as we assemble for our biennial gathering. With the early summer woods as our backdrop, we have planned a conference as well as a retreat on our campus hugged by trees and sky. It is a lovely setting that invites reflection on our shared purpose as well as a moment to think and plan, laugh and play. Ivy+, welcome to the woods! As Dartmouth celebrates its 250th anniversary, we are honored to host you.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Lebanon NH-VT Micropolitan Statistical Area is a geo-demographic area. Responses to Census 2000 questions by the residents of New Hampshire and Vermont defined its boundaries. After analysis of those responses, the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) selected the towns that showed the greatest social and economic interdependence to define the extent of The Lebanon NH-VT Micropolitan Statistical Area. The OMB uses a Micropolitan Statistical Area to present local and regional data so that it reflects the actual behaviors of its residents. The Lebanon NH-VT Micropolitan Statistical Area is an economically integrated region of 25 contiguous towns that spans four counties in two states.

    TOWN OF HANOVER NEW HAMPSHIRE ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2015 & 2016 TOWN MEETING ANNUAL TOWN MEETING Tuesday, May 10, 2016 Voting: 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Business Meeting: 7:00 p.m. Hanover High School Gymnasium 41 Lebanon Street FIRE DEPARTMENT IN REMEMBRANCE JERYL L. FRANKENFIELD On September 13, 2015, the Town of Hanover lost a valued friend. Jerry was the cornerstone of the Fire Department, spending a 42 year career working in various positions for the department, most recently that of the Deputy Fire Chief / Hanover Fire Marshal. Jerry was a thoughtful, passionate person who valued codes, rules and regulations. His goal was to make both the Town of Hanover and the Dartmouth campus a safer place for its citizens and students. His job required him to work with people of all walks of life and he earned the respect of professors, administrators, contractors and laborers alike. He had a valued, longstanding working relationship with Dartmouth College and he knew top to bottom every building on campus, as well as in the Town. As a tribute to Jerry for his service to their community, on September 25-26, 2015, Dartmouth College lowered their flag to half-staff on the Green; a tradition reserved to honor deceased trustees, students, faculty and staff and one that speaks volumes. Jerry was highly respected by those he worked with at the Hanover schools and he remained a volunteer for the high school’s annual Project Graduation long after his children had graduated. On a personal side, Jeryl was an avid collector of antique John Deere tractors and a member of many clubs.

St. Lawrence officially opens the 2008-09 campaign Friday, October 10 as it visits Yost Arena to take on defending CCHA postseason and NCAA Frozen Four participant Michigan in Ann Arbor. Coach Joe Marsh's Saints battle the Wolverines in a two-game season-opening series. Rensselaer carries the ECAC Hockey banner north of the border Saturday, October 11 as it travels to Quebec City, Quebec to compete against former League member and current Hockey East foe Vermont at the Pavillon de la Jeunesse, which is part of Quebec's 400th anniversary celebration. Each school will also have a legendary hockey alum as an honorary captain — both of whom are Quebec natives. Rensselaer will be represented by Joe Juneau, a two-time All-American who scored 213 career points for the Engineers prior to embarking on a 13-year National Hockey League career. Serving as UVM's honorary captain is Martin St. Louis, Vermont's all-time leading scorer and a three-time All-American and winner of the NHL's Hart, Ross, and Pearson trophies in 2004. Defending regular-season champion Clarkson takes to the road to open its campaign, battling RIT Friday, October 17 and Niagara Saturday, October 18 at Blue Cross Arena in Rochester, NY.

  • Chapter 2: Regional Context
    CHAPTER 2: REGIONAL CONTEXT 1. INTRODUCTION The idea of belonging to a region is nothing new to Hanover and its neighboring municipalities. There is a tradition of thought, activities and inter-municipal cooperation that extends across town, county and state boundaries. Since the Region provides a common background, each town has a stake in keeping the Upper Valley region a desirable place in which to live and work. Hanover and its neighbors cannot afford to look only as far as town lines. Because the population and/or tax base in many towns are small, cooperative efforts are necessary to cut costs for services and, in some cases, essential for the service even to be provided. Individual communities each play a distinctive role in the growth of the Region. As the Town looks ahead to the next decade, it is important to understand Hanover's identity and role in this broader context. While other chapters of this master plan emphasize Hanover and its resources, and goals and policies, this chapter will highlight Hanover's significance from the perspectives of the immediate Upper Valley and broader region. Then, specific issues the Town will need to consider from a regional point of view in the near future will be addressed. 2. A SENSE OF THE PLACE Hanover, a small New England college community, is the cultural anchor of the Upper Valley. With its highly regarded quality of life, Hanover is home to Dartmouth College and its museums, theatrical and musical productions, lectures and sports events, attractions for residents, alumni and visitors. The town’s business and office/laboratory districts maintain a strong and vibrant economic base.
