This benefit was conceived by Westfield on Weekends president, Jay Pagluica. Chicago Total Access is a music group made up of 10 talented musicians who all grew up listening to American and British pop/rock, jazz, blues, rhythm and blues, Motown, acid rock. They’ve been influenced by music from the 40’s to the 70’s as well as classical music from the ages. There is no other American rock n roll band
with horns that has influenced more musicians, is loved by millions of people worldwide, and has become such a deep part of Americana as the band Chicago. Since 1967, through 46 years of sold out concerts, millions of record sales, and legions of cheering fans worldwide Chicago is still going strong in 2013. The members of Chicago Total Access have attempted to recreate a slice of the timeless musical catalog of Chicago as well as stay true to the spirit of the original recordings. We hope you enjoy their efforts! The liner notes of Chicago’s first recording titled “The Chicago Transit Authority” still inspire Total Access band members and they hope you, as well -- “The printed word can never aspire to document a truly musical experience, so

if you must call them something, speak of the city where all save one were born; where all of them were schooled and bred, and where all of this incredible music went down barely noticed; call them CHICAGO.” Tickets for the show are available on line at www.purplepass.com, at Rocky’s Ace Hardware in Westfield or by calling 800-316-8559. This is a hi-energy, explosive show band dedicated to covering the band’s catalog that spans over 45 years. The audience will have “total access” to the music of Chicago.

Westfield Rain Barrel Program To help homeowners and the town manage their water supply and manage storm water Westfield is offering residents the opportunity to buy discounted rain barrels. Capturing and storing water at the home and the use of rain gardens are the two most effective ways to use rain water. Saving rain water helps homeowners save money. Rain water is free, and it’s an excellent water source for plants, gardens, lawns and any other non-potable use. One tenth of an inch of rain on a 1000 square foot roof --about 25 minutes of moderate rainfall-- will fill a 60-gallon Rain Barrel. New England typically receives 17” of rain during the growing season from May through September. This provides enough water to fill 170 Rain Barrels. Droughts stress residential landscaping and town water facilities. In 2016, 168 communities in Massachusetts faced restrictions on nonessential outdoor water use 47% of the Cities and Towns in the state. There is no restriction on rainwater use. Westfield chose to work with the Great American Rain Barrel Co., a local food
Sunday. April 7, 2019 - 11 importing company that has been repurposing shipping drums into Rain Barrels since 1988. Last year 30% of Massachusetts Cities and Towns partnered with The Great American Rain Barrel Co, selling over 3000 barrels. Great American Rain Barrel Co has been approved vendors by the MASSDEP for the state since 2010. Barrels are being offered for $69. Barrels will be available for pick up on Tuesday, April 30th at the Westfield DPW, 28 Sackett St, from 2PM – 6PM. Deadline for purchase is April 23rd, Midnight. To participate in the Rain Barrel Program and find out more about the barrels, please visit: www.greatamericanrainbarrel.com/community/ and select your town. Barrels are on display at the DPW 28 Sackett St.
How Westfield Became Known as The 'Baseball Town' Presented by Dan Genovese, Wednesday, April 24, 2019, First Congregational Church. Free and open to the public. Baseball is America’s Game and Westfield is known as a baseball town, a “badge of honor” that is earned, so how did it start? The game was not invented by Abner Doubleday, instead it evolved and 19th century Westfield helped to shape the game we love. This presentation will cover our earliest days of “pre-baseball”, the pride and passion of our town teams and Westfield’s first two hometown MLB players. Presented by Dan Genovese, author and historian of Westfield baseball history, winner of the 2010 Westfield Historical Commission’s Annual Preservation Award and Captain and Re-Founder of the Westfield Wheelmen Base Ball Club.
