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.

Mill Town Circus Hosts Free Family Event

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Mill Town Circus is offering a free community event on Saturday, Oct. 3, from 10 to 1 at Noel Field Athletic Complex.
 
The event will run in conjunction with the Children's Parade & Fair at Noel Field the same day. 
 
Mill Town Circus has staged circus shows in the past during Fall Foliage Week focusing on the region's mill history. Producers Carlo and Brenda Pellegrini said this year they decided to do something different and asked if they could add their fun day to children's activities. 
 
"For the past 20 years, we have presented this interactive circus program approximately 2500 times for audiences throughout New England and beyond," the Pellegrinis wrote. "It's tried and true — and a great time for children, parents and grandparents alike."
 
They hope to make this event as accessible as possible. 
 
This program is made possible by the generous contributions of Mountain One Bank, North Adams Partnership And Tourists Hotel.
