North Adams Pursues Return to Normalcy – BusinessWest
While North Adams tries to return to familiar norms, many are prepared to adjust if new pandemic concerns arise. That’s the perspective of Mayor Thomas Bernard, anyway, who said his community has slowly and cautiously taken steps to bring back the positive routines of daily life. “The moment that stands out for me is our first concert at Windsor Lake in early to mid-June,” Bernard said. “There were people who hadn’t seen neighbors and friends for more than a year. The sound of kids laughing and playing, great music, the spirit was unbelievable.”
