Cancelled or changed? Popular North Country events navigate the pandemic By John Pirsos | January 10, 2021 at 4:29 PM EST - Updated January 10 at 11:17 PM
WATERTOWN, N.Y. (WWNY) - Itâs a new year, but the U.S. is still not out of the woods when it comes to the pandemic. That means people may not be able to attend their favorite local events in 2021.
One popular event is the North Country Goes Green Irish Festival, which has been cancelled yet again.
âThis will be the second year in a row we havenât had a festival, which cuts down the amount of money that we can raise, and in turn give back to the community,â said Dave Missert, Co-chairman of North Country Goes Green Irish Festival.
