The Dover Democratic Committee’s always-popular annual FDR dinner is coming up soon – it will be on Saturday, March 23, at Niles Community Center at 6 p.m. Everyone in the county, the state, and points near and far is invited. This is the sixth annual Franklin Delano Roosevelt spaghetti supper. It’s hosted every spring by the Dover Democratic Committee. Tickets to the event are only $15 for adults and $5 for children. You can be a Sponsor for $25, including one ticket, or a Patron for $50, including one ticket.
Niles center is located on Union St. off Court St., just south of downtown Dover. The dinner will include a magnificent salad, home-cooked spaghetti and meatballs, and delectable desserts.

Saturday, March 30 – 10 AM to 2 PM – “Move the Money” Strategy Workshop – NH Peace Action – 4 Park St., Concord
SPR has decided to participate in the Move the Money campaign sponsored by national Peace Action. This effort will serve as a vehicle over the coming year for average people to voice their opinions and demands regarding military spending. The goal is to have communities throughout the United States publicly support reducing military spending by 25%. The money saved would then be directed to critical budget shortages facing virtually every community in our country. We will select communities within the Seacoast region to organize support for municipal resolutions or warrant articles to call for federal action to meet human needs – by moving the money!
