Jack Adams was elected president of the Cooperstown Native Sons at the annual dinner Saturday, June 14, at the American Legion. He succeeds Doug Walker.
New members this year are: David Bliss, Paul Clark, David Lamb, Ted Lamb Jr., Fred Lemister, Jim Leslie, John Reynolds, David Sanford, Art Smith, Shawn Mulligan, Pete Costello and Bruce Robinson.
Members who passed away during the past year are: Dick White, John Ryan, Dr. Bill Mook, Fred Fields Sr., Ernie Winnie, Dutch LaDuke, Charlie Petewec and Gerald Rogers.
A memorial service for Dutch LaDuke, who died Dec. 19, was held earlier in the day so Native Sons coming in from out of town could attend. LaDuke’s son Dave preceded Walker as the club’s president.
The dinner, always held the second Saturday in June, was attended by 74 members this year.
