The 400th Committee has been working with the City of Dover's Media Services Director Mike Gillis and former Foster's Daily Democrat editor Wayne Chick to interview, film, and record for posterity some reminiscent stories from our present-day citizens. This new video series, "Voices of Dover", seeks to preserve local residents' recollections of Dover: its people, its schools, its businesses, its memorable moments.
