Village Hoists Banner Encouraging

Wearing Masks, Social Distancing

David Lamb, assisted by Randy Bailey, hoists a new banner across Cooperstown’s Main Street this morning encouraging residents and visitors alike to follow measures recommended to stem COVID-19, including wearing masks and social distancing. Lamb started putting up the banner on returning from the service in the 1980s – an adjunct to his father’s banner-making business. And he’s been doing so ever since. The issue of wearing masks was raised again this week at a special meeting of the Village Board. (Jim Kevlin/AllOTSEGO.com)

  1. So David Lamb has been hanging this same banner and standing on the ladder since the 1980s? Check your caption because the way it’s written, that’s what it sounds like.
