New Book Launch Party......
Taking The War Out
of the Warrior Bangor’s Tom Menhennitt has written and published his first book “Taking The War Out of the Warrior,” which he will introduce at a launch party scheduled for 2:00pm March 31 at the Bangor Trust Brewery in downtown Bangor. The book is “based on a chapter of my life when I was going through a separation with my wife, and then eventually a divorce,” he said. “I was filled with hate and anger and wanted to die. Through many experiences, it was exposed that I had some hidden truths to be unlocked . Through miracles and eye-opening experiences, my heart became softer and (I) learned to live a positive and happier life.” He also has become an inspirational speaker which led to an unexpected interview with Arianna Huffington’s Thrive Global https://thriveglobal.com/stories/5-things-you-need-to-know-to-survive-and-thrive-after-a-divorce-with-tj-menhennitt/ Menhennitt says that the public is invited to the launch party which will include a live artistic representation, music and lots of fun.

John Bermingham, Chairman, UMBT Supervisors has announced that Upper Mount Bethel Township is partnering with the Bangor School District on hosting programs and educational courses concerning drug awareness. This partnership will further support the School District in protecting our children from leading a life on drugs.
On March 6, 2019 from 6:30pm-8:30pm at Bangor Area High School there will be a “Mock Teen Bedroom” course. This is a free course that any parent/s may attend regardless of where you live or how old your children are.
The Course is designed to inform parents where kids stash their drugs, what diversion safes are, and common household items that indicate abuse. I hope you will come out for this wonderful program that will help you better protect your children.

Taking The War Out of the Warrior

The book is “based on a chapter of my life when I was going through a separation with my wife, and then eventually a divorce,” he said. “I was filled with hate and anger and wanted to die. Through many experiences, it was exposed that I had some hidden truths to be unlocked . Through miracles and eye-opening experiences, my heart became softer and (I) learned to live a positive and happier life.”
He also has become an inspirational speaker which led to an unexpected interview with Arianna Huffington’s Thrive Global
Menhennitt says that the public is invited to the launch party which will include a live artistic representation, music and lots of fun.
