Print Story | Email Story
DALTON, Mass. — The Berkshire Money Management team announced that "once-in-a-lifetime" employee, Zack Marcotte, has been promoted to Director of Financial Planning. 
 
Marcotte began working at Berkshire Money Management during his senior year of high school. He has witnessed and participated in the building of the firm from startup to success. Marcotte's 13 years working side-by-side with BMM's professionals has provided the kind of on-the-job training that led to his desire to become a financial advisor.
 
"Financial planning is the art of figuring out what you don't know," said BMM founder and CEO, Allen Harris. "It's tax planning, not tax compliance. It's increasing income, not decreasing lifestyle. It's  making sure you don't run out of money in retirement. The only team I want to trust with those high-value objectives is the team led by Zack Marcotte."
 
Marcotte recently earned an MS in Personal Financial Planning.
 
In his free time, Zack enjoys wood working, going to the gym, and venturing into the wilderness with his dog, also a long-time member of the BMM family, Dexter.

Dalton Cultural Council Accepting Grant Applications

Staff Reports
DALTON, Mass. — The Cultural Council is accepting applications for grant funding to support local events and initiatives until Oct. 16. 
 
The council aims to improve residents' quality of life by promoting access, education, and diversity in the arts, humanities, and interpretive sciences.
 
The state Cultural Council awarded the town council $8,000 for the 2025 fiscal year to assist organizations and individuals in funding local cultural projects focusing on arts, humanities, and sciences.
 
"The Cultural Council funding that is provided by the state annually has a great impact on the community," Chair Alyssa Maschino said.
 
"Some of these programs couldn't happen without these grants. Last year, we granted funds for hiking backpacks that can be rented from the Dalton Free Library, concerts held at the CRA, and dance classes that were held at the Senior Center for the older population, plus much more. We were able to serve different generations at different locations throughout Dalton."
 
The state Cultural Council has overseen the Local Cultural Council Program since 1990.
 
During its August meeting, the council also updated the grant application to state that it will prioritize Dalton and the surrounding communities in this year's grant process.
