Amsterdam's 2nd annual Spring Fling
Downtown Amsterdam, NYSaturday, May 19, 2012
On Saturday May 19th, The City of Amsterdam (NY) held its 2nd Annual 'Spring Fling' in Downtown Amsterdam NY.
John Stage, (FAMOUS 50S NORTHEAST NATIONALS HOT ROD WEEKEND, promoter) organized a Free Car Show for the event and the "Smitka Brothers 67 Cycle Works" of Amsterdam NY Put on a Free Bike show with Spectator voting for the Trophy Awards.
The Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame, which calls Amsterdam, NY home, held its 11th Annual Induction Weekend festivities to coincide with Spring Fling this year. Most notably, "Superfly" Jimmy Snuka, Tommy Dreamer and Tony Atlas and others are being Inducted this year but, I didn't see any of them to take their picture!
Over 100 vendors selling a wide variety of foods and crafts were set up and doing a brisk business. DJ Tom Foster was entertaining the crowds near the Car Show and the 'Three of a Kind' Rock & Roll band was playing on Main St. near the Hall of Fame. "JR & his GUITAR" was down at the corner of Church St & Main.
Sunshine and mid 80's temp was the order for the day. Hope you enjoy my Pictures! Tom Poremba
