With its season preparations in full swing, members of the Glimmerglass Opera staff made time on June 16 to march in the 2008 Baseball Hall of Fame Game Parade down Main Street in Cooperstown. Opera and baseball intertwined in Cooperstown as Glimmerglass’s parade marchers sang “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” while wearing shirts and jerseys to show support for their favorite teams. The parade was part of the festivities leading up to the final National Baseball Hall of Fame Game at historic Doubleday Field. Glimmerglass joined groups from throughout the community in marking this historic occasion. Look for photos coming soon from Glimmerglass Opera’s participation in the Springfield 4th of July Parade!
