More Snow
The Berkshires received several inches of snow this morning, but not enough to close schools, unlike yesterday's sleety mess. Temperatures will drop into the 20s this afternoon. A few more snow showers are expected through the weekend.
We have reports that the roads are very slippery to take care in the evening commute. |

Little Red Schoolhouse to Hold Applefest - September 19, 2008
WILLIAMSTOWN — The Little Red Schoolhouse is holding its annual fall tradition, Applefest, on Saturday, Sept. 27, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The event is a free country fair that celebrates the beginning of autumn with activities for the whole family, including games, contests, face painting, crafts and a small petting zoo for children. A bake sale and food concessions offer food and drink to attendees, as well as an apple pie competition with homemade pies baked by community members and families of children attending the school. The event also features a raffle with more than 30 prizes donated by local businesses.
Applefest is the largest public fundraising event of the year for Little Red Schoolhouse, a nonprofit cooperative preschool serving children 2 years, 9 months old, and older from around North and Central Berkshire County and southern Vermont. The funds raised from Applefest are used for classroom materials and curriculum planning.
The Little Red Schoolhouse is located just south of the intersection of routes 43 and 7 in South Williamstown. For more information, call Katie Turton at 413-884-5354. |
