The March issue opens with a preview of the town warrant, excerpted, and an announcement for the March 1 Pre-Town Meeting to go over all it contains. We will vote (for 3 proposed Planning Board changes, the candidates for public office, the school district budget) at Town Hall March 8, and hold Town Meeting March 12 to vote on the rest among fellow townspeople. We can meet the candidates March 5 at the DPL.

We welcome a new policeman, hear that the Energy Committee is meeting, and local ads call for several summertime recreational positions to be filled.

We have the School Board report, are reminded to turn our clocks forward for DST, and the new Chamber has a survey for us to fill out.

The Trustees of Trust Funds offer annual scholarships, the local nonprofits seeking funding for human services display their associated costs, and our town honors five people who have died in the last month.

The Ceramics Studio is opening, the Historical Society has another quiz (with answers in the back pages), and the monthly community take-out supper is always for anyone who can call ahead.

We read our monthly news from our little elementary school, and get invited to a Sugar on Snow event March 20.

The Community Center shares all its offerings, a local young man is welcomed to the Franklin Pierce University football team, Ascentria is housing Afghan refugees, we read a dear story about a “blended pet family,” and hear about a wildlife visit from a bobcat and her litter.

A recent Advocate staffer details the history of maple sugaring in town and brings it right up to the present day, The River Center shares its parenting and tax-help offerings, and donations are always sought to feed our hungry schoolchildren over the weekends.

The state and federal Commission on Aging offer tips for well-being, and the local shelter shares its wish list; all donations are welcome.

The Peterborough Players is back on stage this summer and you can get or give a ride with CVTC.

The NH Coverts Training describes its work, and DCA students place well in a moot court. Our calendar is once again filling the back page! Please let our advertisers know you saw them here, and stay well.
