I live 30 minutes from Cooperstown. I still can't believe that teams need to bring their own umpires. I don't know exactly how much this organization charges each team... but I believe it isn't cheap. Why can't this organization provide paid umpires? My organization used to do games there. Why would umpires do games for free when the owners of this facility are making a fortune each year? Maybe I'm way off base but until someone tells me differently I think this whole situation just isn't right. Why doesn't this place just sign a contract with our association and we could provide all the umpires they need. Many of us live within driving distance of Cooperstown. We wouldn't need rooms, meals, "FREE" shirts, ect. All we would need is the fee payment for the games. Doesn't this make more sense than the way things are done now?
