News & Notes: Pittsfield Restaurant Reopening

By Larry Kratka - May 07, 2008

Brazilian Restaurant to Reopen

PITTSFIELD — After a two-month hiatus, the Brazilian Restaurant and Pub on McKay Street will have a grand reopening on Thursday, May 15. 

Pittsfield Cultural Director Meghan Whilden said the restaurant will be featuring live jazz on the 15th and expects to have more live music throughout the summer and fall. 

The Brazilian Restaurant closed just about the same time that Spice closed on North Street ... both victims of a slow off-season and various internal problems.

Spice remains closed while its spin-off, Burger, remains open on North Street.

 
Special Olympics Runs the Course

GREAT BARRINGTON — Special Olympics of Western Massachusetts held its spring track and field events today at Monument Mountain Regional High School. 

The local Special Olympics chapter was recently recognized for its work over many years by the Berkshire Chamber of Commerce.

Opening ceremonies took place at 9:30 this morning, complete with the Monument Mountain marching band providing music and the lighting of an Olympic-style torch. The torch was then paraded around the track. 

Events took place from 10 until 1, when closing ceremonies took place and awards were distributed. Students at the high school cheered on the Special Olympic athletes throughout the event.
