Good morning, Nashua.

Joseph Byron, founder of Honor Flight New England, has been named the latest Hero Among Us—his nonprofit flies senior veterans to Washington, D.C. to honor their service and reflect on past wartime memories.

A local family tradition of sending holiday cards to US troops has grown into an international nonprofit effort led by Laura Landerman-Garber and Staff Sgt. Chris Lussier—volunteers in New Hampshire now proofread and mail hundreds of thousands of cards, offering troops a piece of home. The program began at Thanksgiving and continues to connect communities with its heartfelt support.

Golden Retrievers took over Amherst’s Village Green on Sunday for the seventh annual Goldens on the Green event—featuring a fashion show, agility course and doggie kissing booth that raised funds for Operation Delta Dog to support veterans.

The community enjoyed a fun day that brought families and dog lovers together.

Jax, an 8-year-old German shepherd-Husky mix from Pope Memorial SPCA in Concord, is ready to leave shelter life for a loving home—he enjoys fetch and quiet evenings—and needs a calm household as his only pet.

Women who met at Keene State College in 1977 reunited for an early fall reunion today, bringing cheerful vibes to New Hampshire—A black bear cooled off in a koi pond in Freedom and Manchester firefighters visited a kid’s lemonade stand before their next call.

Spooky World in Litchfield was named the second scariest haunted attraction on the America Haunts list and featured a haunted hayride with over 120 scare actors roaming its grounds—new scenes were added this year.

Faye Jones (a junior from Nashua Community Music School) was chosen as the InkLink News intern to review SymphonyNH’s season, and she will attend all five music director finalist performances including the launch concert 'Unexpected Stories' (at Keefe Auditorium).

Her review details conductor Tiffany Chang’s dynamic cues and the orchestra's strong section blending that sets a promising tone for the season.

NH Housing CEO Rob Dapice said data shows the median home price is $565,000 and only 15% of families can buy a house, making it hard for businesses to keep workers.

Rising rents and few homes add to the strain—further efforts are needed to balance the market.

Medicare Advantage users in New Hampshire will face changes to their coverage next year as Anthem and Martin’s Point stop offering individual plans and Aetna drops plans in most counties—Humana and WellSense will still offer coverage with fewer choices available.
