Am I the only one who found it humorously bizarre that a significant amount of people object to the Mahopac School District’s use of an Indian as a mascot? Isn’t it the most appropriate name one could have for a place called Mahopac, which is an Indian word for “great lake?” If you object to the use of Indian names, then lobby to change the name of the hamlet itself.
