COOPERSTOWN — The Cooperstown Winter Carnival had great success this past Thursday, February 1st through the 4th! There were tons of things to do all around town and the community really came together to make it happen!
Though there was no snow for this 56th Annual Cooperstown Winter Carnival, organizers had a plan and made sure everyone had a blast all the same!
The festivities started on Thursday evening, February 1st, with a packed kick-off event at The Otesaga Hotel & Resort and ran through Sunday, February 4th. There were activities, events, live music, competitions, sales, fundraisers, and so much more all over.
This year was different from all the rest with the first-ever Blizzard Bash to wrap up the event on Sunday afternoon, February 4th. This was a tailgate party in the Double Day Field Parking lot with face painting, a pie eating contest, bounce house, DJ Raphael, and of course the Brewery Ommegang’s food truck. There was also a unique and mesmerizing Tesla Car Light Show too!!
The 56th Winter Carnival was sponsored by the Lions Club of Cooperstown, Bassett Healthcare Network, Leatherstocking Credit Union, and Optum. The festival was made possible by the Winter Carnival Committee and all the additional sponsors and volunteers.
