2020 has been one of the craziest times in my life time with all the deaths, sickness, cancellation of almost every event and the lose of businesses and jobs due to the COVID - 19 Pandemic. I hope that they can find a vaccine soon so that things can get back to normal in 2021. Myself and all my friend will be waiting to watch Skater Fest going down the Detroit River once again to the delight of all its fans and the return of all the boating events that we love to see in the summer. Stay safe. Andy

I think the closures have just begun.....the local Ruth Chris steakhouse just closed permanently. It had been there since the 80s, RC even owned the building until 2008. I wouldn't want to be the landlord there now, that is a huge vacancy (7000 sq ft) to try to fill. They closed 23 of their 135 stores so far.

It will all be over after the election. This is the greatest overblown Hoax in world History.

it’s not much worse than the flu. The virus may not be a complete hoax but the fear and overreacting is a joke!!

I am curious if you wear a helmet, driving gloves and possibly an asbestos blanket in case of fire when you are driving your vehicle? Because, you have a 1000x better chance of dying, driving to be tested for covid than being killed by covid? People die in car accidents.....

Forsure a real bummer... SkaterFest is a great event and one one of the very few things I look forward. Always nice meeting up with the guys and seeing the new hardware every year. I'm sure Ron will plan something better than ever for next year as he always does!!!
