Rusty Bison,
wakes villagers
Staff Report • Special to www.AllOTSEGO.com
Hartwick Fire Department #2 and other local volunteers were able to quickly douse a fire at the Rusty Bison restaurant south of Cooperstown on state Route 28 early in the morning Saturday, Sept. 4, but the damage was extensive enough to close the restaurant for an unknown length of time.
The restaurant at 4938 Route 28 posted on its Facebook page Saturday afternoon:
"There was a fire at the restaurant. No one was injured. Thank you to whoever called it in. If you hadn't seen it when you did, it would have been much worse. Thank you to Hartwick fire departments and the amazing volunteers that were they so quickly the damage wasn't nearly what it could have been. We didn't lose anything other than just building damage but we will be closed until further notice."
