Submissions:  The "Henniker Community Outlook" is an online publication of the Town of Henniker Selectmen's office. It is essentially a list of upcoming community events.  To post something here, please e-mail it to webmaster@henniker.org. Photos are always welcome, however no commercial advertising please. The Selectmen's Office reserves the right to omit or edit submissions.

 

About:  The "Outlook" was first started after the 1998 town-wide Community Profile. This was a 3-day event orchestrated by the University of New Hampshire's Cooperative Extension, whereby townspeople took stock of where they were in regards to meeting the desires of the community and developed an action plan for how they wanted to operate in the future. A town-centered newsletter was a winning vote at this Profile, birthing forth a monthly paper that was produced first by a volunteer Communications Committee. Eventually, as volunteers became squeezed for time and funding, the newsletter was published by the Selectmen's Office.  It went from being mailed out every month to four times a year with the help of volunteers at White Birch's Senior Center. When the town participated in another Community Profile process in 2009, communications was again brought up, this time with an emphasis on website presence as a way to enhance communications.  Due to the 2010 budget cuts, the "Outlook" was no longer printed or mailed. Instead it became a digital version, only available through the town's website, www.henniker.org. In keeping up with the ever-changing advances of technology, the Outlook morphed again in 2011 by becoming embedded into the the town's website - to be updated regularly, rather than four times a year.
