Perfect summer success story in Beverly

What’s one way to get over missing your entire senior year of high school baseball? Go out and win a state championship the following year.
Multiple Beverly baseball players earned that fate when the Beverly Post 331 American Legion baseball team won the state championship last Wednesday, July 28 at Adams Field in Quincy with a 5-2 win over Milton Post 114, 5-2. The team is composed of high school and first-year college-aged players from Beverly and Salem.
It was just a little more than a year ago that many of the players on this championship team sat on the sidelines, because the sports world shut down in the spring of 2020 due to COVID-19.

GEOTOURISM has become the domestic travel smash hit of the holiday season with record numbers of visitors descending on two of the Limestone Coast’s most spectacular natural sites.
The Tantanoola and Naracoorte Caves are becoming fan favourites of intra and interstate tourists to the region, with tours quickly reaching capacity each day.
National Parks and Wildlife Limestone Coast manager Nick McIntyre said preliminary figures indicated visitation was up 25pc at both sites compared to January 2019.
Mr McIntryre said while the true figures would be confirmed at the end of the month, initial reports suggested a significant increase from last year, which he described as “a very, very good year”.
