  • Our Opinion: Roses

    Roses and good luck to the Cooperstown Hawkeyes. The team’s home opener is Wednesday, June 6, on the village’s historic Doubleday Field. The Hawkeyes play in the Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League founded in the fall of 2010 by eight summer baseball teams located across upstate New York. We believe it’s great Cooperstown – considered by many to be the home of baseball – has a team it can call its own.

    Last week, the Otsego town board voted to grant the village’s Gateway Project “limited zoning immunity.” The decision nullified a stop work order issued to the project earlier by Otsego Town Code Enforcement Officer Hank Schecher.
