Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, Cooperstown, New York

The birthplace of baseball has been established as Cooperstown, New York, where folklore has it that Abner Doubleday chased the cows out of Elihu Phinney’s pasture on an afternoon in 1839 and had the inspiration to invent a game that quickly became our national pastime. The National Baseball Hall of Fame, dedicated 100 years later, stands as the definitive repository of the game’s treasures and as a symbol of the most profound individual honor bestowed on an athlete.

Howe Caverns

The cavern was discovered and explored by a Schoharie Valley farmer in 1842. Lester Howe wondered why his cows stood out in the hot sun near some bushes instead of under his shade trees. Upon investigation he discovered cool air blowing up out of a cave entrance behind the bushes. After thorough exploration, he opened his cavern to the public and it was soon heralded as a tourist attraction second only to Niagara Falls.

Merry-Go-Round Exhibits, Binghamton, New York

Located at Recreation Park and Ross Park are two of the six carousels that George F. Johnson donated to local parks. Johnson felt carousels contributed to a happy life and would help youngsters grow into strong and useful citizens. Because of his own poor childhood, “George F.” believed carousels should be enjoyed by everyone and he insisted that the three municipalities never charge money for a magic ride. Now, into their seventh decade, these magnificent machines still spin from Memorial Day to Labor Day at no charge or for an admission of “one piece of litter.”
