50th ANNIVERSARY WINTER CARNIVAL
Beads Evoke Age Of Aquarius,
When Winter Carnival Began
A bead-wearing contingent from the Baseball Hall of Fame enjoys The Party of the Decades, an opening salvo of the Cooperstown Winter Carnival ongoing at Brewery Ommegang until 8 p.m. this evening. Clockwise from fronft left are Kelli Bogan, Nate Tweedie, John Janitz, Jamie Brinkman, Stephanie Hazzard, Francois Dillinger and Cassidy Lent. At the door, carnival volunteer Colleen Donnelly was handing out those mementos of the 1960s, when the enduring celebration began. At right, carnival chairs from those early years, Charlotte Koniuto and Bill Waller, share memories of the fun from a half-century ago. (Jim Kevlin/AllOTSEGO.com)
