PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The Boys & Girls Club of the Berkshires announced at its annual meeting on June 17 that it has appointed interim executive director Chris Jacoby as permanent executive director.

Jacoby had held the interim position since being appointed in March. The club also elected its officers, board members and corporators at the annual meeting which was held at the Country Club of Pittsfield.

John C. Donna, board chairman, said the board is delighted with the decision.

"We are confident that Chris’s background and commitment to the club will help us fulfill our role as a valued community resource and move the club forward,” he said.

Jacoby retired from the Pittsfield Public School system in July 2014 after 33 years as an educator. He was the principal of the Theodore Herberg Middle School from 2001-14 and has held positions as a teacher and a coach. Jacoby has been a member of the Boys & Girls  Club of the Berkshires Alumni Association for the last 15 years and a board member since July 2014.

“I look forward to utilizing what I have learned over the past months as interim executive director to help the club fulfill its mission,” Jacoby said.
