Letter: Support for Christine Hoyt

To the Editor:

April 28, 2026
I am writing to offer my strong support for Christine Hoyt and her re-election to the Adams Board of Selectmen. Over her nine years of service — including stints as chair and vice chair — she has built a deep understanding of the town's needs and developed relationships that directly benefit Adams.

Christine has been a steady leader focused on maintaining essential services, strengthening fiscal stability, supporting local businesses, and advancing important projects like the Adams Theater and Greylock Glen. She understands that there is still more work to be done, particularly in areas like infrastructure, economic development, and housing. However, this is exactly why her continued leadership is so important — we cannot afford to lose the valuable knowledge, experience, and continuity she brings at this critical time.


Beyond her resume, Christine stands out for how she serves. She genuinely cares about the residents and visitors of the town, as well as the town's employees. Collaborative by nature, she consistently steps into leadership roles when needed and is a trusted resource for those seeking guidance on town matters. She is always professional, prepared, and thoughtful in addressing the issues that come before the board. I don't think that those are skill sets we can afford to lose at this time.

Christine Hoyt provides the experience, dedication, and steady leadership that Adams needs to keep moving forward. I strongly encourage voters to support her re-election on Monday, May 4.

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.
