Saturday marks two years since a powerful tornado tore a 39 mile long path of destruction through western Massachusetts.
Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno and the city’s parks department will host a brunch to honor individuals and organizations for tornado rebuilding efforts. The mayor has also called for a city-wide moment of reflection at the time the tornado touched down two years ago.
The tornado was the most powerful to hit Massachusets in a half century. It claimed three lives.
