My College teacher from Petsokey has passed- 80's, the owner of the party store across from my dealership has passed- 50's, and a family friend has been released once and is now back in the hospital -70's. I remember about 8 years ago on the 4th of July in front of the dealership, a gentleman fell over not feeling well. Me and my brother in-law grabbed the guy and found him a chair. I called 911. We waited for the ambulance. The next day me and my brother in-law both ended up sick as a dog. Sorry to bore you with my stories, but I did not feel at this time we can 100% guarantee the safety of 5000 people walking around our streets by July. I hope I look like a fool by then and this has passed. This does not even include the cost of the event, if we spent thousands of dollars and found we had to cancel in the middle of June. I personally am sorry we had to cancel this, hopefully people are still able to get up north and enjoy boating
I asked to have my sponsorship roll to 2021 and the reply was could not be done.....I am surprised that given the circumstances that was not an alternative

I asked for the same thing.

I already know our marketing budget is going to get slashed for 2021 and we'll have to miss this event. It's definitely disappointing.
