Letter: Vote for Right Team for North Adams

Letter to the EditorPrint Story | Email Story

To the Editor:

Hi there! How many North Adams folks know that Election Day is on Tuesday, Nov. 7? How many residents realize that the current mayor is up for re-election? Luckily for us, the signs on the lawn of City Hall remind us of our civic duty.

Me, I voted early right there in City Hall, for nine members for City Council (phew!) plus the city mayor. I'm eager to earn bragging rights for electing the right team. Because, coming soon, North Adams will be reviewing the 10-year update to our Vision 2030 Comprehensive Plan.

We have made progress, despite the COVID-19 setback, and now we are looking ahead to a prosperous future. Vote, and get the right team on board in City Hall. Thank you.

Alice Bojanowski
North Adams, Mass.

Hockey Tournament Raises More than $20,000 for Team Liam

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. -- The Shamrocks and Rensselaer Rejects won the A and B Division titles, respectively, at this weekend's Berkshire Summer Bash.
 
The three-day tournament organized by the Berkshire Bear League Hockey league, brought teams from around the region to help raise money to support Liam Lescarbeau, a 9-year-old member of the Northern Berkshire Youth Hockey League's Black Bears youth program.
 
On Monday morning, NBYHL President Aaron Girgenti reported that the event raised more than $20,000 through team entry fees, the concession stand and a raffle.
 
On Sunday evening, the Rejects squared off against the F-Bombs in the B division final after each team played three games in a four-team round robin.
 
The Rejects held a slight, 3-2, lead after two periods but earned a two-goal margin with a goal midway through the third. The New Yorkers tacked on an empty net goal in the closing seconds to take a 5-2 win and the B Division title.
 
The Shamrocks' A Division final against the Ducks got off to a fast start with the teams trading goals in a high-flying first-period that saw the Shamrocks take a 3-1 lead before the Ducks scored in the 15th minute of the 17-minute period to get within a goal at 3-2.
 
In the second period, though, the defenses and goalies took over, and the score stayed 3-2 until midway through the third, when the Shamrocks broke through to get some breathing room.
