Letter from Eric Pierce

Banners Can Inspire Others

As a proud Air Force dad, I’m wholeheartedly in support of the placement of photo banners in the Village of Cooperstown honoring those who served. With a well-organized fundraising effort led by local veterans groups, the village can honor its local heroes as well as it does its sports heroes. I look forward to submitting our daughter’s service info and photo in the hope that she inspires other local girls to “aim high.”
