Del Norte Covered Wagon Days canceled

DEL NORTE - The Del Norte Covered Wagon Days Committee has announced that they are canceling this year’s event due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Carl Hill, Chairman, said, “It was a hard decision to make but after learning that many of the other events were being canceled, our board decided it was in the best interest of the community to cancel ours also.” Coupled with the fear of spreading the virus is the financial concerns. Covered Wagon Days relies heavily on the donations from local businesses and individuals to put on this event every year. Hill commented, “that the businesses have been hit hard financially this year and we just don’t feel right asking them to donate to our event.” For more information call 657-2521.
