Letter: Re-Elect Gordon Hubbard to Lanesborough Select Board

Letter to the EditorPrint Story | Email Story

To the Editor:

I support the re-election of Gordon Hubbard to the Select Board in the town of Lanesborough.

Mr. Hubbard prepares himself well by reading all the agenda materials before the Select Board meetings. He is very transparent, has no personal agenda, has an open mind and the business acumen that has worked well with the fiscal responsibilities of the Board of Selectmen.

Gordon has attended Planning Board, Zoning Board, Finance Committee, Recreation Committee, Board of Health, and Economic Development Committee meetings and every Business-to-Business Event while serving as a selectman in this town. He is very sincere in his desire to continue serving the community and he has always been courteous and a true gentleman when responding to the public at these meetings.

Given my roles in town government serving on the Economic Development Committee as the chair, member of both the Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals and having attended just about every Select Board meeting over the past several years, I’ve witnessed firsthand the differences in the candidates in their preparation for the meetings they are involved in. I've also read Mr. Hubbard's platform, goals, experience, and education on www.reelectgordonhubbard.com.

Gordon is by far the more prepared, experienced, and professional of the two candidates in this race.

The town of Lanesborough has some very serious issues that require the best, most qualified person for the job. Transparency and accountability are very important when running for public office at this high level! Gordon Hubbard is by far that person.

I'll cast my vote on Tuesday, June 21, for Gordon Hubbard, Select Board member for three more years! Your vote is important – remember to vote – get the vote out – remember, every vote has an impact on the future of our town.

Barbara Davis-Hassan
Lanesborough, Mass.

Pittsfield Little League Stays Alive at State Tournament

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires.com Sports
HOLDEN, Mass. – Less than 24 hours after committing three errors and allowing four earned runs in a 15-14 loss at the State Tournament, the Pittsfield Little League All-Stars returned to form.
 
Pittsfield was perfect in the field and got solid pitching and contributions up and down the lineup in a 7-2 win over Boxford to stay alive in the state’s “Final Four.”
 
On Saturday, Pittsfield gets a rematch against Bridgewater, which dropped a 5-2 decision to Roxbury’s Parkway in Friday’s late game.
 
The winner of Saturday morning’s game will face Parkway on Sunday for the right to represent Massachusetts at the New England Regional Championships and play for a trip to Williamsport, Pa.
 
“At the end of last night’s game, there were no hung heads,” Pittsfield coach Joe Skutnik said of the extra-inning loss in the tournament opener. “And they hit the ball [against Bridgewater], and they felt good about the way that the played.
 
“It was one bad inning that we could have put it away, but it didn’t happen. But they knew that. And today, they came out and kept hitting, and I like the way that we put the runs on at the end of the game.”
 
Pittsfield scored two runs in the bottom of the first and never trailed. It also answered both Boxford runs  in the fourth and fifth innings.
