Congratulations to Carl Sprague

A Special Congratulations to Carl Sprague on completion of the latest Wes Anderson movie and for making past, present, and future movies more beautiful and visually meaningful. Movies on which Carl worked include Grand Budapest Hotel, The Age of Innocence, Amistad, The Social Network, Lala Land, 12 Years A Slave, The Royal Tenenbaums, Isle of Dogs, and now, The French Dispatch, and Asteroid City. Thank you, Carl for always making time to enhance local productions with set designs.

Stockbridge Updates Upgrade

We love to receive email! Happily, the SU email box was full this month. Sadly, that means some emails did not get through. Here is what we have done: the SU inbox is now bigger and hopefully this will prevent it being full again. We answer every email without fail, so if yours was not answered, we probably did not receive it; please resend. Thank you.

Correction

Jay Bikofsky sent the following: Carole: Great visiting with you this morning at the Post Office. As Gary Johnston and I mentioned, it would be most appreciated if Stockbridge Updates could issue a correction as to the current Town Finance Committee Membership.

This will acknowledge their voluntary time commitment in the service of our Town.

The roster is as follows:

Jay Bikofsky, Chairman
James Balfanz
Neil Holden
Pamela Boudreau
Diane Reuss
Stephen Shatz
William Vogt

Many Thanks as always,

Jay B.

Hi Jay,

Thank you for being an SU reader and for taking the time to alert us to oversights. Stockbridge Updates inadvertently omitted the name of your newest member and my good friend, Pam Boudreau. We thank her and all who work on behalf of Stockbridge. We send each and every one our best wishes in 2022,

Carole

Stockbridge Updates Statement of Purpose

To inform without opinion or pressure and give the people of Stockbridge the facts they need to make informed decisions.

Stockbridge Updates Policy with Respect to Submissions

SU welcomes your letters and other submissions on all Stockbridge subjects, history and current events, news and human interest, whatever is on your mind. As with articles and opinion pieces, letters are 400 words or less, no personal attacks, and always attach your name. SU does not include personal information and will delete telephone numbers, email addresses, post office boxes, and street addresses. Limit one submission per month.

Carole Owens, Executive Editor

Stockbridge Updates: Format

SU is attempting to present a consistent format for readers. SU begins with its Table of Contents. The SU Editorial is next and then the News. News is divided between one-time events, such as the election and events around town, and recurring reporting, such as the Notes from… section. It is called Notes from… because SU attends the town meetings, takes notes, and reports what happened. If SU has a comment or question, it is at the end of the meeting identified as Editor’s Comment or Editor’s Question. The next section is Contributors. Under contributors, you may find Stockbridge history, opinion pieces, or information from a Committee Chair or elected official. Our final section is Reader to Reader, our letter section. The issue closes with the SU Statement of Purpose and Policy for Contributors. We welcome all letter writers and contributors; deadline on the 10th for the issue posted on the 15th of the month and on the 26th for the issue posted on the first.

Your Submissions Welcome!
