Letter: Breen Has Right Experience for North Adams Council

Letter to the EditorPrint Story | Email Story

To the Editor:

Well, I just voted, and I gave my first vote for City Council to Pete Breen. Why, you ask?

No other new candidate has the experience and devotion and has been as generous with their time. Over the past 40 years, Pete has served on many boards and commissions. He has worked for a variety of employers including MCLA, where Pete was a facilitator and instructor for technology and curriculum development and assistant registrar. Pete took that experience over into the town of Adams, where he implemented the town's entire computer system, serving as the town's technology administrator. Pete then went farther south, where he was a member of the adjunct faculty at BCC for four years.

Shifting gears into education, Pete taught computer science at Hoosac Valley for 12 years, while also serving in the district office and as the pupil transportation officer.



After retiring from compensated work, Pete set his sights on volunteering in North Adams serving on the License Board Commission and serving as the North Adams representative for the Northern Berkshire Vocational School District, and finally, Pete's current passion, serving on the Hoosic River Revival Board.

That's why I gave my first vote to Pete Breen. And I hope that you do too.

David Willette
North Adams, Mass.

FLORIDA, Mass. — Crayons and markers in hand, fourth-grade pupils in Kimberly Wall's class at Abbott Memorial School brought to life the customer-focused service and reliability of Hometown Tire Works as part of our Junior Marketers Create an Ad series.
 
The premium tire service shop, located at 525 Ashland St. in North Adams, sells, services, and repairs a wide range of tires, with a focus on providing reliable performance and helping keep families safe on the road.
 
"The mission of Hometown Tire Works is complete customer care, putting people into safe vehicles that have safe tires on them without having to break their bank," said Kyla Davis, one of the owners.
 
When you walk into the shop you become part of the Hometown Tire family, owners Kyla and Matt Davis said. 
 
"Tire work is all I've ever known my whole life. Been doing it for 26 years, and the complete satisfaction of customer care and making sure that they're more of a family than they are a number is really why we wanted to do this," Matt said. 
 
Hometown Tire has access to almost every name-brand tire and offers next-day delivery if it's not already on the shelf, he said. 
 
One of the company's biggest selling points comes from its focus on customer education and tire repair services, Kyla said.
