COOPERSTOWN

For Cooperstown residents, summer—and the beginning of tourist season—is fast approaching. The Village Board of Trustees has begun making preparations for Hall of Fame Weekend and other activities in the coming warmer, busier months.

The Village Board met on Monday, March 24 for about two and a half hours. Early in the evening, discussion of Hall of Fame Weekend began, with logistical discussions on the staging of buses for tour groups to the Baseball Hall of Fame Induction. Concerns about parking were clear.

Main Street is set to be closed from Chestnut Street to Fair Street on Hall of Fame Weekend, from 6 a.m. on Friday, July 25 to 6 a.m. on Monday, July 28, with a portion of the Doubleday Field parking lot reserved for vendors.
