Concert series to resume at Lakefront
By PATRICK DEWEY • Special to www.AllOTSEGO.com
After a year of limited social gatherings in 2020 because of the coronavirus pandemic, the Cooperstown Lakefront Concert Series is slated to return on Tuesday evenings in July and August.
Rich McCaffrey, who organized the shows through the Village Parks Board for 15 years, has retired and the Village Parks Board will be helped by the Cooperstown Chamber of Commerce and Randy Smith, a volunteer passionate about arts and music in the local community.
“We owe McCaffrey a tremendous debt of gratitude for almost single-handedly doing what will now be done by multiple people,” said Deputy Mayor Cindy Falk.
To aid success of the new partnership, Smith and Tara Burke, director of the Cooperstown Chamber, developed a survey. The quick survey asks distance from Lakefront Park, age range, group size and musical taste.
The survey is available on the Chamber website until June 21.
