Will These Events be Back in 2021?
Unthinkable things happened in 2020. The Steele County Fair got canceled. Schools did not hold their proms. Graduation turned into a parking lot commencement. Virtually everything else was transitioned to a drive-thru. The Young Life cake auction shifted to an online activity. Many of these events were still a success last year. Which, if any, will return to something close to normal in 2021?
Will These Events Happen in 2021?
Early each year a big crowd usually gathers for the chili cook-off in Owatonna to benefit the Andrew Lawrence Memorial Scholarship Fund. I have not seen any notes about that event on postponement or cancelation. The Young Life Cake Auction will likely still be virtual event. That s what director Lindsay Thompson said when I saw her during Young Life s 5K New Year s Day run/walk. It is scheduled for April 18.
