About us: VisitingCooperstown.com is a loving tribute to Cooperstown, N.Y., from the staff of the popular VisitingNewEngland.com Web Site. The purpose of starting VisitingCooperstown.com is to provide a presence on the Internet that is "the next best thing to being there" -- that is, a detailed mix of text and photos that bring you into the Village of Cooperstown through the Internet.

Founder Eric H. is an award-winning public relations specialist and journalist who has served as the assistant editor/editor of many publications in the public and private sector. The VisitingCooperstown staff, while having roots in New England, has a deep appreciation and respect for Cooperstown as, first and foremost, a tremendous community offering their residents a high quality of life. It is, no doubt, a tourist destination, also, providing visitors with a beautiful and relaxing setting -- the perfect place to unwind.

It is interesting to note that VisitingCooperstown.com is, clearly, the work of non-residents. We are native New Englanders who think the world of Cooperstown and, in general, Otsego County and Upstate New York! We feel the tourist's point of view will be appealing to those who visit our Site, as they can see the great Village of Cooperstown through the eyes of someone like them -- a visitor. This perspective should give tourists an honest viewpoint --not based on hype, but rather fair and balanced reporting from the eyes of a fellow tourist.

Please keep in mind that this is your Web Site! We are merely the facilitators. We'd greatly appreciate your feedback in helping us set the standard for travel reporting in regards to Cooperstown. Please contact us with your thoughts on this wonderful community, as well as suggestions on how we can provide you the highest quality Web Site.
