Storefronts, restaurants, hotels, inns, and family attractions throughout the Cooperstown, Oneonta, and surrounding areas are scrambling for full- and part-time employees as the region prepares for a busy summer tourist season and a hoped-for return to pre-pandemic levels — despite rising inflation and gasoline costs.
