Festival of Trees Cancelled due to Covid Concerns
In what could be a prelude to a repeat of the massive cancellation of 2020, we have our first cancellation due to Covid of the upcoming 2021 Fall Season.
Saint Alphonsus said today through a release that due to the ongoing challenges presented by COVID-19 and with an abundance of caution based on where the community is with the pandemic, the Saint Alphonsus Foundation has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2021 Festival of Trees.
“As a healthcare system and as caregivers, we have a responsibility to navigate the pandemic with caution and provide a safe environment for those within our hospital, as well as limiting large community gatherings that we would normally have,” said Odette Bolano, President, and CEO of Saint Alphonsus Health System.
