BERKSHIRE COUNTY, MA – Nominations are now open for the 2018 Esther Quinn Award. This award is now in its 19th year and last year, for the first time ever, 1Berkshire gave the award to not one, but two deserving women: Denise Richardello of MCLA and Linda Gaspardi Febles of MountainOne. If you would like to be considered or know of someone who should be, please apply. Nominations will be accepted until March 23, 2018.
Esther Quinn, for whom this award is named, was an advocate for volunteerism and active with many organizations throughout the Berkshires. She was a member of the Berkshire County Board of Realtors for more than twenty years and was the top Century 21 agent in all of Western Massachusetts several times. Her help in bringing people together to strengthen and serve the community, to which she gave much of her spare time, was evident in her efforts throughout the region. We are pleased to be able to give out this award each year to a local recipient who embodies all the qualities that Quinn held so dear and worked so tirelessly for.
The award will be given out at our Good News Business Salute at Berkshire Hills Country Club on April 18th at 7:30 am. To join us for the award ceremony please purchase your tickets.
