Eat Out Tonight and Support the Amherst PTA

Taking the "hush" out of Hospice. Come with your questions, concerns, and curiosity about end-of-life care to an informative program on Tuesday, Nov. 19 at the Congregational Church of Amherst, led by Tanya Prather, Volunteer Manager for Home Health and Hospice Care. All are welcome. The program begins at 7:15 in the vestry with light refreshments. For more information, please contact Carolin Sanchez at 603-391-5977 or c.n.sanchez@comcast.net.

Coat donations. Has your child outgrown their winter coat? Have some that you've kept hanging around with good intentions to pass them down to friends but never did? Consider donating them to a coat drive to help warm up some less fortunate kids this season. Find out where to drop your gently-used coat here. If you're feeling extra generous, you can drop off new coats to any of these locations as well.

Shows will be Friday and Saturday, Nov. 22 and 23 at 7:30 p.m. Students and senior citizens tickets are $5, adult tickets are $10.  Get out and support your local high school theater department.

Tonight, the wind should die down and skies will be clear with a low around 22.
