THUNDER BAY - The celebration of a historic milestone for Chippewa Park will have to wait one more year as uncertainty regarding the COVID-19 pandemic has halted plans this summer.
This July marks the 100th anniversary of the park opening and Friends of Chippewa Park were planning to hold a five-day family festival over the Civic Holiday.
“After considerable discussion and contemplation, the Friends of Chippewa Park decided to postpone the festival until the summer of 2022,” said Lorraine Lortie, president of Friends of Chippewa Park.
“We felt it would be irresponsible to hold an outdoor festival that could attract as many as 10,000 people when so many could still be susceptible to contracting COVID-19.”
