Adams Open Space and Recreation Plan Survey

Print Story | Email Story
ADAMS, Mass. — The Town of Adams invites the public to participate in a Survey informing the Adams Open Space and Recreation Plan. 
 
The Survey is available via SurveyMonkey. Town residents and visitors to the town are asked to weigh in on priorities for open space planning in the coming 10 years.
 
The survey is open through Dec. 1, 2025.
 
The survey asks respondents a variety of questions including demographic information, recreation and conservation needs and desires, parks improvements they would like to see in the town, what recreational facilities they use, and what policies the Town should enact to accomplish those things.
 
"Having a current Open Space and Recreation Plan makes the town eligible for Massachusetts State grant programs through the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs such as the PARC Grant (Parkland Acquisitions and Renovations for Communities),” said Seth Jenkins, senior community planner for Berkshire Regional Planning Commission.
 
The Town is working with staff from the Berkshire Regional Planning Commission to develop the Open Space and Recreation Plan.

Comedy and a Cause: Hypnotist Fundraiser Supports Adams Street Fair

By Sabrina DammsiBerkshires Staff
ADAMS, Mass. — You are getting sleepy ... very sleepy ... and when I snap my fingers, you'll feel an irresistible urge to support your first responders.
 
Did it work? Probably not — I'm a writer, not a hypnotist.
 
Fortunately, R-rated hypnotist Frank Santos Jr. has that part covered. On Saturday, Aug. 8, Santos will bring his comedy hypnosis show to town for a fundraiser benefiting the Adams Street Fair, with proceeds helping support the annual community event.
 
The fundraiser will be held at Turn Hall, 6 Turners Ave., beginning at 5 p.m. with a spaghetti dinner, followed by Santos' performance at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $35 and include dinner, with all proceeds benefiting the Adams Street Fair.
 
"It's going to be a great show," said Joseph Martin, Adams Street Fair Committee chair. 
 
The spaghetti and meatballs will be made by Stacy Gigliotti and the brownies for dessert will be donated by M&J's Taste of Home Diner, he said. 
 
To make the sale of the tickets as accessible as possible Martin said he is willing to personally deliver tickets to anyone interested in attending.
