“Stuff the Bus” Fundraiser for Humane Society A BIG Success


In her efforts to help homeless animals, Cocheco Valley Humane Society volunteer, Danielle D’Alessandro, held a “Stuff The Bus” fundraiser on Saturday, August 15th. The day-long event, held at Heritage True Value Hardware on Route 4 in Northwood, was a tremendous success. Community members, area businesses and friends of the animals came from throughout the region to fill a full-sized school bus, which was provided by Northwood Transportation, Inc.


The bus was over-stuffed with items on the humane society’s wish list, including food, toys, treats, cat litter, beds, blankets, cleaning supplies and office supplies. In addition to more than $4,000 in donated food and supplies, D’Alessandro held a raffle with items donated by area businesses that raised an additional $2,150 for the humane society.


D’Alessandro’s entire family participated in the successful fundraiser, proudly wearing specially designed bright yellow T-shirts to celebrate the event.


The school bus arrived at Cocheco Valley Humane Society in Dover at 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday, August 18th to be unloaded by humane society staff and volunteers. “We were overwhelmed by the community’s response,” said Martha Jo Hewitt, CVHS Executive Director. “Danielle put a lot into the event and her hard work has made a big difference for the animals that rely on CVHS for a second chance.”


The cash donations and supplies will be used in the shelter’s operations, and a portion of the donated food will be made available to community members in need through the humane society’s Pet Food Assistance Pantry.

 

The Stuff the Bus fundraiser for the animals was a community service requirement for completion of D’Alessandro’s Coe-Brown Northwood Academy senior portfolio project. She will graduate in May of 2010.


Cocheco Valley Humane Society is a community-funded, non-profit animal welfare organization. The Society’s mission is to provide quality, compassionate care and shelter to our animals, in partnership with educating the community concerning animal treatment and welfare. New Adoption Center hours are Tuesday, Wednesday and Sunday - 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Thursday - 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., Friday - 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturday - 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., closed Monday.

Chesley Memorial Library Summer Reading Results

 

Youth Librarian Danielle Fortin Dyes Her Hair For Summer Reading.


Summer Reading Programs at the Chesley Memorial Library have finished for the season. We had 3 extremely successful programs this year- The SRP for kids K-5, the SRP for tweens & teens 6-12, and a brand new program for adults!  We had record attendance for all three programs, and look forward to next year’s programs. This year’s themes focused on all things environmental and going green.  Some of the activities we did included recycled crafts and green cleaning activities.  Participants in the SRP and SRC were also challenged to read for over 50,000 minutes over the summer, and if they did Youth Librarian Danielle would dye her hair either pink or green.


Danielle is INCREDIBLY pleased to announce that the readers of Northwood have surpassed her reading challenge by thousands of minutes! The final tally was for 59,821 minutes read! The votes were tallied and the participants chose Pink as her new hair color!  Her hair was dyed on Sunday, August 23, and will remain pink until the color fades out. Danielle would like to tell all the participants how proud she is of them all and that everyone who read should be proud of themselves! Because everyone read so much next year’s challenge will be to beat 70,000 minutes!


The Chesley Memorial Library would also like to extend our deepest gratitude to the generous businesses and organizations that assisted us with our various summer reading programs through sponsorship.  Without these businesses we would not have been able to do as much for our community. We would like to thank: Camp Yavneh, Shadowgear Comics, the Northwood Hannaford, On the Hill Collectables, Wilder Flooring, Piece Time Puzzles, Spinelli Cinemas, North River Market, Chadbourn’s Restaurant, The Northwood Diner, and the Friends of the Northwood Libraries.  Thanks to your generous contributions we were able to make our Summer Reading Programs memorable for everyone involved!


We would also like to extend thanks to all the individuals who contributed materials or their time over the summer! Thank you for your continued support!

 


 

The Obedient Christian Connects (Part 4)


By Pastor Ted White
Do you gather in a local church? Why or why not? Do you go to a local church for what you can get or give? To be served or serve? Do you use the gift(s), resources and talent(s) for God’s glory or let others do so while you observe from the bleachers?


In Hebrews chapter 10 and verses 24 & 25 we read, “And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.” This tells us that we should not stop getting together with other believers, but that we are to consider each other and encourage each other to grow in our love and in the good deeds. This is to happen more and more as we see the day of Jesus’ return getting closer and closer.


The obedient Christian will be involved with a local church whose foundation of belief and practice is the Word of God, the Bible. A person may say, as many have, I can worship God without going to church. Well of course. I worship God when I am not in church, but you cannot be an obedient Christian if you are not involved with what God has designed, the church. Now, not all churches are the same just as not all people are. But, for a Bible based church, there will be values that are the same. Those mentioned in this series would be valued at any church that seeks to follow God’s Word. The person who does not believe they should be involved in a local church, whatever form that may take, is living in disobedience.


In Romans chapter 12 we read this-
“3 For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you. 4 Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, 5 so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. 6 We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man’s gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith. 7 If it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach; 8 if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully. 9 Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. 10 Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. 11 Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.” May we be obedient in this area.


We have to know Him to want to meet with others. Find out how at www.newhopenorthwood.com or call 942-7729 or to find peace with God http://www.billygraham.org/SH_StepsToPeace.asp or http://www.simplysharejesus.com/
