RICHMOND, Mass. — Berkshire HorseWorks is inviting the community to its Annual "Romance at the Ranch" event on Sunday, Feb. 9, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The pre-Valentine's Day gathering offers participants the chance to take unique photos with rescued horses and donkeys while supporting a good cause.

The event, held at Berkshire HorseWorks’ facility at 101 Patton Road in Richmond, will feature hot cocoa, cookies, and a raffle to win an equine activity. A suggested donation of $25 will go directly toward medical care and food for the therapy herd.

Berkshire HorseWorks has provided equine-assisted psychotherapy, learning, team-building, and educational programs for over a decade. The nonprofit’s offerings include Horse Powered Reading and Math curriculums, serving more than 3,000 individuals across the Berkshires and New England, including at-risk youth, veterans, and families.

Letter: Thanks to Pete's Garage in Sheffield

Letter to the Editor

To the Editor:

I want to commend a wonderful person who works there [at Pete's Garage]. I had a flat tire and only had a few dollars. This young man checked the tire and I was informed that it can't be repaired. He changed my tire with the spare.

I can't thank a person like that enough. You have very nice people living in the Shires. Nobody in Connecticut would do that. Thank you very much sir.
