 CELEBRATING THE TRICENTENNIAL ANNIVERSARY OF THE TOWN OF NOTTINGHAM, 
                             NEW HAMPSHIRE

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. CHRIS PAPPAS

                            of new hampshire

                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, January 6, 2022

  Mr. PAPPAS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the 
tricentennial anniversary of the incorporation of the Town of 
Nottingham, New Hampshire. Incorporated by Lieutenant Governor John 
Wentworth and named for Daniel Finch, 2nd Earl of Nottingham, this 
town's long and rich history has culminated in the vibrant and caring 
community that we see today.
  From the beloved Pawtuckaway State Park to intimate local museums, 
the town of Nottingham has perfectly captured the beauty of its present 
and past. Nottingham's dedicated conservation efforts have preserved 
the surrounding wilderness in pristine condition. As the first town in 
the United States to make recycling mandatory, Nottingham has led the 
way in protecting our natural resources. The communities that have 
grown and persevered over the past three hundred years in Nottingham 
are remembered in the town's museums and in the families that pass on 
their stories. If the past three centuries are any indication of the 
future, the town of Nottingham will remain a harbor for its loving 
community and beautiful nature for many years to come.
  On behalf of my constituents in New Hampshire's First Congressional 
District, I want to congratulate the Town of Nottingham on this 
incredible milestone. I look forward to a continued partnership with 
Nottingham and its residents who I am proud to represent in Congress.
