PITTSFIELD â Call me a wedding planner! Weddings, as we knew them prior to COVID-19, are on the horizon.
If all goes well, Massachusetts will relax its gathering restrictions for indoor and outdoor events on May 29, allowing for groups of 200 indoors and 250 outdoors; with a plan to remove all business restrictions on Aug. 1. I think that may be a sign. Aug. 1 is Herman Melville s birthday, said Lesley Herzberg, executive director of the Berkshire County Historical Society at Herman Melvilleâs Arrowhead, as over a dozen Berkshires-based wedding vendors primped the lawn of the historic farmhouse, at 780 Holmes Road, for a wedding-themed photo shoot.
Fiona Brosnan
Fiona Brosnan, a student at the school, was confirmed as a finalist in ActionTalks national speech-writing competition run by ActionAid, which is open to all students aged 14 to 17 years old.
The competition is taking place entirely online this year and the topics focus on the pandemic. Another Kerry student, Labhraidh Costello, a student at Mercy Secondary School Mounthawk, Tralee, has also been chosen as one of the eight finalists in the competition. We had a challenge on our hands choosing the finalists this year, said Siobhán McGee, CEO of ActionAid Ireland. As well as the high volume of entries, we could see that students from across the country worked hard on the speeches, including researching how the pandemic had affected people in other countries.
