The total moneys allocated for these awards this season is $29,100.

The Little League season is in full swing at both the Great Barrington and Sheffield Park playing fields. This makes a busy schedule for the new Kiwanis Cafe (our refreshment trailer) since we cover all contests at the Sheffield venue. The Cafe is also booked for events such as the Senior Center Flea Market ant the new weekly market on the Chapel grounds across Route 7 from the GMC dealership.

On a disappointing note: the "Battle of the Bands" will NOT take place this season as previously announced. The "music shed" on the Berkshire School Campus has structural damage and cannot be used this summer

The Sheffield Kiwanis Golf Tournament occurs later this year -- on Friday, July 9, at the Egremont Country Club. Mailings have reached our regular sponsors and players.
