of the NH State Board of Education, to give a talk on the state of
Education in New Hampshire. The event will take place at 7:00 PM on

The
State Board of Education (SBE) is a seven-member body whose members
serve without pay except for reimbursement of expenses incurred in the
performance of their duties. Members cannot be technical educators or
professionally engaged in school work. Members are appointed by the
governor and executive council. Five are selected, one each, from the
five executive councilor districts and two are selected from the public
at large. Except when appointed to fill the unexpired term of a previous
member, members serve for a five-year term and may serve up to two
consecutive terms. The Board must hold at least six regular meetings a
year.
Bill Duncan is a retired technology entrepreneur and the founder of Advancing New Hampshire Public Education (www.anhpe.org),
dedicated to advocating for public education in the State. Born in
Boston, he graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy and served in Vietnam
as an advisor to the Vietnamese Navy before starting a business and
nonprofit career. He founded, and for 12 years led, the Mountain
Association for Community Economic Development, a leading economic
development organization creating jobs and housing for low-income
families in Central Appalachia. In that role, he organized 100 Eastern
Kentucky banks to provide subsidized financing housing for low-income
families in Central Appalachia and founded Forward in the Fifth, the
first education advocacy organization dedicated to building common
ground among parents, administrators and teachers in hard-pressed
mountain schools. Mr. Duncan moved to New Hampshire in 1986 and resides
in New Castle.
The
TriTown Democratic Committee advocates for strong local support of our
communities, and supports legislation and candidates that are community
minded. Their activities provide political, economic, and social
information for the citizens of the three towns, but also encourages
progressive movements in these areas at all levels of government.
Through community involvement, political action, and a shared vision,
the group seeks to expand equity and opportunity for all residents of
the Towns of Farmington, Milton, and New Durham.

Tri Town Dems Honors Dinner Tonight-Program, Sponsors, Info
Saturday, May 2, 2015
Tri Town Democrats Honors Dinner
Farmington, New Hampshire - February 15, 2015
- The TriTown Democrats, representing the Democratic Committees of
Farmington, Milton, and New Durham, are hosting their second annual
TriTown Honors Dinner on May 2, 2015. The gala event will begin at 6:00
PM on May 2, 2015 in the Farmington Recreation Center, 531 Main Street.
Last
year, the TriTown Democratic Committee decided to host a TriTown Honors
Dinner in order to spotlight some of the amazing folks who live in our
communities The honorees dedicate their energies and efforts to make
our communities better places to live, work, and raise families. The
first honorees of the awards were Ron Chagnon of Farmington and Leo
Lessard of Milton. Both men served our communities well by holding
local, county and state offices. After the success of that first
dinner, the committee decided to make the TriTown Honors Dinner an
annual event that would recognize a member of each community for the
good work that individual has done to enrich the quality of life in our
towns and surrounding communities. While the TriTown committee
represents a loose organization of three Democratic Town Committees, the
TriTown Dinner is a non-political event, and the honorees are selected
for their philanthropic work and community service, not for their
political affiliation. Everyone is welcome and invited to attend the
dinner. The buffet meal will include, vegetarian lasagna, baked chicken
breast, and roast beef, with scalloped potatoes, and side vegetable
choices. Salad and dessert are included.
The
honors for this second annual event will go to three very deserving and
well known community members. The Farmington Committee selected Dottie
Bean to receive the second Honors Award for Farmington. The Milton
Committee selected to honor Victor Joos for his contributions and the
New Durham Committee will honor Cathy Allyn for her continuous work to
support the New Durham community.
Tickets
for the event are $25.00 per person, with the bring a friend cost of
two for $45.00. You can reserve your tickets online at http://goo.gl/forms/9ewKIHZZWZ,
or by sending your reservation check to TriTown Honors Dinner, PO Box
637, Farmington, NH 03835. Please include your email address, the
number of tickets you want to reserve, and your choice of sponsorship,
if applicable. Indicate whether you will mail a check or pay at the
door. We will email you a confirmation and tell you your ticket number.
Your tickets will be waiting for you at the door. The committee asks
that your reserve your tickets by April 17th, but they will continue to
accept reservations afterward.
Special
Donor sponsorships for the event are also available. Sponsorships
must be ordered in advance by the April 17th deadline in order to
accommodate printing of the program. There are three levels of optional
event sponsorship:

The
TriTown Democratic Committee is the representative body for all
registered Democrats in the Towns of Farmington, Milton, and New Durham,
NH, all of whom make up its membership. The TriTown Committee
advocates for strong local support of our communities, and supports
legislation and candidates that are community minded. Our online and
local presence not only provides political, economic, and social
information for the citizens of the three towns, but also encourages
progressive movements in these areas at all levels of government.
Through community involvement, political action, and a shared vision, we
seek to expand equity and opportunity for all residents of the Towns of
Farmington, Milton, and New Durham. We firmly believe that equity of
opportunity can only be achieved through progressive change that will
advance our society towards shared values that promote understanding,
education, acceptance, and equality.

2.
As you go around your house, your shed, your barn, your garage etc.,
put things in the box that are interesting, in good condition and useful
to someone.... but not you.
3.
Specifically these things can be new, elderly or antique. They can be
tools, dishes, collectible items, jewelry, fancy hats, kitchen
appliances and utensils, books, office supplies etc.
4.
Think about putting small pieces of furniture like small tables,
interesting chairs, lamps (floor and table), paintings and prints,
picture frames, art, umbrella stands, fancy flower pots, lacy linens
next to the box which is getting quite full by now.
5.
On or about May 1, bring what you have collected, old snowshoes, useful
athletic equipment, lawn furniture to 23 Boston Harbor Rd., Dover Point
NH to Caroline French's house, the site of the yard sale. This yard
sale will benefit the Strafford County Democratic Committee — their projects, our candidates and your goals.
Come back and spend a few hours helping Caroline sort and price things May 1-8. PLEASE join the yard sale committee as a lead organizer…email Caroline below. If you have any sheets of old computer labels, please bring them for price stickers.
Things not to bring:
- Leftovers from your own yard sale
- Things that are broken and beyond repair
- Clothes, except for shoes that are almost new and things like leather aviator jackets. New straw hats that you bought and thought you liked but don't would also work. The same goes for small luggage, purses, baskets and the like.
Then
on Saturday, May 9, come back and help us run the best new yard sale
ever in Strafford County. We will have a grill and hotdogs. Sign on to
bring chips, ice cream sandwiches and peanuts in the shell. This sale
will run from 10 to 2 and a rope will be across the end of the driveway
and there will be no early birds no matter what.
- We also need worker bees after the sale at 2pm to help clean up and haul away. Our goal is to make enough money to help elect Democrats throughout all Strafford County in 2016!
Thanks ahead of time for helping to make this important fundraiser and recycling event successful.
