Dear –FNAME–,
With incoming weather, it is possible that the City of Nashua may declare a snow emergency for tomorrow, Thursday January 3rd. For information on what this means with regard to parking and municipal services – check out the City of Nashua’s Winter Weather Bulletin, and stay tuned to the NashuaNH.Gov homepage for the most up to day snow emergency information. The Nashua Superintendant of Schools has already announced that schools will be closed on Thursday as well. Stay safe, and stay warm!
Thank you to the hundreds of Nashuans who voted in support of our community to receive the Levitt AMP Your City Grant! It was really inspiring to have so many of you rally around bringing more outdoor live music events to Nashua in 2018!
I am sorry to share that though we made it into the top 25 – we learned this week that Nashua was not selected among the 15 final recipients. Thank you all for your dedication! We are hopeful that we will have success in next year’s grant cycle. Do you know of any grants that would be a great fit for our programming? Send them my way!
The show must go on! We are looking forward to bringing more great music programming to Nashua in 2018. Please consider making a donation by clicking here to support our 2018 concert series!
Happy New Year!
-Paul

FREE Until Help Arrives Workshop
@ Nashua City Hall!

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
THURSDAY, JANUARY 25
6-9pm
This FREE Until Help Arrives course is January 25th. The training covers a number of key areas including how citizens can effectively communicate with 9-1-1 operators, stay safe in a dangerous situation, stop life-threatening bleeding, position the injured, and provide emotional support. With these basic skills, citizens can play a part in being a part of the solution during an emergency. While emergency services are right around the corner in Nashua, this program teaches the important actions that can be taken prior to professionals arriving. Please note that due to the graphic nature of the course, participants should be at least 13 years of age.
Space is limited so sign up now
