Just to be clear we virtually had no choice. We are now 10 months into the 2 week shutdown and putting all the work into marketing and planning only to not be able to have it did not seem prudent. That coupled with the national's current moratorium on events makes it impossible.

Canfield Spring. Summer and Fall in OHIO is a go. Check out Dave and Ed's. I'm hoping

health concerns will be under control in time for the Fall event.

We ran one in October -It was great and we had a good turn out but I couldn't find one single decent 34 V8 part that I needed -Was possible because as we are a small and isolated island country we have managed (for now ) to get the virus out of our community. Long may it continue -Stay safe and be positive the things we love doing will return to us and we will appreciate them and enjoy them even more when they do -Karl

Sad to hear, but prudent. My 2nd favorite event with Hershey in 1st. Always looked forward to either snow in the face or sunshine, although in last few years it has been a little later in April, and that seems to have resulted in far better weather.

As of today, Hershey is happening in 2021. My hope is with the roll out of vaccinations, the curve will flatten enough to hold the event.

I'm slated to get my first round of the vaccination on Thursday.
