Heart of Hanover
🎉 This Weekend in Hanover
Mid-September is serving up a full plate of Hanover charm — from artsy nights out and mindful living to Oktoberfest flavors, glittering pumpkins, and even a little cosmic insight. Whether you’re in the mood to sip and paint, stroll through a wellness fair, or taste your way through downtown, this weekend is overflowing with options.
A big thank-you to this week’s sponsors, Long Angle and Pacaso. Clicking their links directly supports this newsletter.

Keep This Stock Ticker on Your Watchlist
They’re a private company, but Pacaso just reserved the Nasdaq ticker “$PCSO.”
No surprise the same firms that backed Uber, eBay, and Venmo already invested in Pacaso. What is unique is Pacaso is giving the same opportunity to everyday investors. And 10,000+ people have already joined them.
Created a former Zillow exec who sold his first venture for $120M, Pacaso brings co-ownership to the $1.3T vacation home industry.
They’ve generated $1B+ worth of luxury home transactions across 2,000+ owners. That’s good for more than $110M in gross profit since inception, including 41% YoY growth last year alone.
And you can join them today for just $2.90/share. But don’t wait too long. Invest in Pacaso before the opportunity ends September 18.
