Gloversville

Stonewell Haunts is closing its coffin permanently after serving spooks and scares to the community for over 20 years! Catch the finale this Halloween weekend.

The Parkhurst Field opened in 1906 and was home to the New York State League's J.A.G.'s (Johnstown-Amsterdam-Gloversville) minor league affiliate of the Brooklyn Superbas. One of the central characters in the 1989 movie "Field of Dreams" was "Moonlight Doc Graham". He played on this field in 1907. He was a baseball player and a doctor with hopes to play in the big leagues. The Parkhurst Field has been home to Guilderland Little League and has just begun a major transformation. The $3.6 million project will be completed by 2023 transforming it into a destination for travel little league teams and honoring its rich baseball history. Check out the renderings of what the complex will look like. It's amazing.fac

Whenever you see a 29 year-old make his Major League debut, it is special. Baseball fans, coaches and players know that you have to endure a lot to crack the big leagues at that later stage. It's even more special when that player grew up in the Capital Region and played his college baseball at Siena.

No one has to tell us that New York is a very expensive place to live but I had no idea just how expensive it is to live in the Capital Region compared to other regions in New York state.

There is a new baseball hall of fame coming to New York state about the history of New York state baseball. It will be built in Fulton County and will highlight those who have been inducted into the New York State Baseball Hall of Fame. There will finally be a building to house the artifacts and showcase those players.

Here in the Capital Region, we see stories of crimes every day. Albany, Schenectady, Troy, and Saratoga. It happens. Could one of those cities or even another be the one you are most likely to see a crime in?

Towns all across the Capital Region will be holding Memorial Day services, parades, and activities over the upcoming long week. We've put together a map so you can easily find out what's going on nearest you. Did you know that Memorial Day only became an official national holiday in 1971...

A huge congratulations to John and the crew at Glove City Taxi for winning this week's Work Day Distraction!  While Gloversville was a trek from Albany, it was TOTALLY worth it!  It's so great to meet Q103 fans, and people who work hard and rock...

Another example of political misconduct- alleged, possible, or it did happen- either way it's one more thing to add to the pile of new stories related to political misconduct in the past month alone.  As reported by News 10 abc, Gloversville mayor Dayton King was arrested, processed, and released by New York State Police related to a mischarge conduct...

Seriously? It clearly says "For Motion Picture Use Only" ...

because science? ... Yikes!

Are we sick of these lists yet? You know, the ones from websites created by some guy in a basement looking to attract web traffic by posting racy headlines that deliver clicks. We love it when we're on the 'good list' even though we know the whole thing is mostly bogus; but, when we're on the bad lists, we call it unscientific and ridiculous...
