AWARD-WINNING VOLUNTEER EFFORT BY DLE “CLEAN DREAM TEAM”

For the second consecutive year, the Dulye Leadership Experience volunteer crew received an award from Downtown Pittsfield Inc. for participating fully and zealously in the annual Spring Cleanup. This year, we won the “Clean Dream Team” award for continuing to help in other areas following the completion of our assignment.

Thank you to our awesome DLE members Jacob Heath, Kalee Carmel and Matt Belanger for leading our spirited crew, uniting the DLE and CompuWorks in service together. And thank you to Interprint, Inc. employees for joining in for a clean sweep of North Street.

“It was gratifying to see so many people come out to clean up the place we call home. Chatting with neighboring teams and organizers scattered throughout really made it feel like we were part of one big team. The community was also grateful, and we received plenty of praise out there. Everyone did an excellent job!” shared Jacob.

We appreciate everyone’s time, energy and commitment to giving back to help the City of Pittsfield move forward.

Thank you to Nick Russo, Alisa Costa, Ted DiPietro, Marie Meak, Joe DelSoldato, Dave Hall, Amy Dunn, Sean Hayes, Angie Ryan, Tyson Parrott, Jamie Laprade, Chris Dallmann, Sandy Wick, Deanna Genzabella and Dave Manzella.
