I’m still looking too, I can’t find anything - I’m even on WBCR’s website now -they are useless -lol

With Pittsfield at 150 I can’t see Gt Barrington being that high without some sort of info on the net somewhere.

Pittsfield population at over 45,000 and Gt Barrington at just over 2,000 - it doesn’t make sense-that’s 1/2 the pop.

Is it possible they just had it in Gt Barrington because of a nice venue, and maybe there was some entertainment that drew in folks from all around? Sounds like THAT would have made the news.

I know, I know. BUT when you take into account Sheffield, Ashley Fall, Egermont, Monterey, Otis, Sandisfield, to name a few, and Canaan and Falls Village area of CT, all easily accessible to it, it is very conceivable. And MA is a funny place, a lot of areas Conservatives keep to themselves and each other and are ignored by press and liberals. Pittsfield I understand is similar to North Hampton in ideology, and not surprising that only 150 showed there, or that folks wouldn't want to drive to it.

HOWEVER, this compilation is looking for substantiated events. Therefore, Great Barrington shouldn't be counted. Just as we know many of the tea parties had people come and go, we don't need to count every single event or person who attended one, in order to get a reasonably good estimate. We know, or at least I do, that the general estimate arrived at by this thread will probably be a bit low, but it will be close
