Print Story | Email Story
PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Tracey Babcock, a seasoned Residential Site Manager for Brain Injury Services, and the current BCArc Employee of the Year 2024, has been promoted to Residential Supervisor.
 
In this new role, she will join a team of supervisors who each oversee a range of residential programs. Tracey has been with BCArc for more than 13 years, spending most of her time working in the Brain Injury Residential Programs, specifically with individuals requiring intensive personal and medical care.
 
"BCArc is lucky to have someone with this kind of compassion, combined with great management and leadership skills," said Maryann Hyatt, President & CEO. "I am confident that Tracey will be an excellent supervisor."
 
Tracey is known for advocating aggressively for the individuals in her program. In one example, she traveled to a nursing home in Boston to advocate for a former individual from her program.  
 
"She has no family," Tracey said at the time. "No one is advocating for her at the nursing home. She is non-verbal and she deserves better treatment than she is getting. If I could go more often I would. This is family for all of us, this is what we all do for each other. I will continue to travel to Boston until I get her in a program that treats her properly."

Belchertown Stops Pittsfield Post 68

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires.com Sports
PITTSFIELD, Mass. – Belchertown Post 239’s Cooper Beckwith set the tone when he crushed the game’s first pitch to left-center field for a double.
 
The visitors went on to pound out 14 more hits in a 9-1 win over Pittsfield Post 68 in American Legion Baseball action at Buddy Pellerin Field on Monday night.
 
Beckwith went 3-for-4 with an RBI and scored twice, and Chase Earle went five innings on the mound without allowing an earned run as Post 239 improved to 15-0 this summer and completed a regular-season sweep of Post 68 (12-4).
 
“He’s a good pitcher,” Post 68 coach Rick Amuso said. “Good velo[city], kept the ball down. We didn’t respond.”
 
Pittsfield did manage to scratch out a run in the bottom of the fourth inning, when it already trailed, 7-0.
 
Nick Brindle reached on an error to start the inning. He moved up on a single by Jack Reed (2-for-2) and scored on a single to left by Cam Zerbato.
 
That was half the hits allowed by Earle, who struck out three before giving the ball to Alex West, who gave up a leadoff walk in the sixth and retired the next six batters he faced.
