Cooper's Hall: Cast of Stage Production
The building at 214 South Main Street was know as Coopers Hall. It included the Cooper & Needham Blacksmithing shop (also known as Knudson Hall & Blacksmith Shop) downstairs along with a basketball court and stage up stairs. The court was so narrow that the folks on the one bench on each side had to stand up on the bench to keep their feet off the playing floor. Now the building houses a Machine Shop downstairs and the residence of the Groff Frantz Family upstairs.
