Spring Fling! Begins

At Doubleday Field

Cooperstown Mayor (and Rotarian) Jeff Katz cuts the ribbon a few minutes ago at the entrance to the Doubleday Field Parking Lot, signaling the beginning of the club’s Spring Fling, expanded this year into a two-day event. Some 60 vendors are selling goodies, crafts and specialty items through 5 p.m., with entertainment on the hour, beginning right now with the Z Man in the entertainment tent. Tomorrow, a live auction begins at 1 p.m. in the Cooperstown Farmers’ Market building. (Preview begins at 11). A Sunday dinner, featuring stuffed baked potatoes, is 4-7 in the Doubleday lot, followed by an ecumenical sunset prayer service at 7:30 p.m in Lakefront Park. Rotarians in photo, from left, are Bob Birch, Pat Szarpa, Bill Glockler, Tom Lieber, Georgia Whitney, Spring Fling chairs Jim Howarth and Karen Katz, and Barbara Ann Heegan.  (Jim Kevlin/AllOTSEGO.com)
