As the weather warms, the Tri-Town is already thinking about summer. But as the pandemic lingers, some of Marion, Mattapoisett and Rochester’s annual festivities may come with some caveats.
Last year, traditions like Mattapoisett Harbor Days, the Rochester Country Fair and Marion’s Fourth of July parade were all cancelled by covid. This year, officials are working to make some of those events return.
The Mattapoisett Selectmen tentatively approved plans for the Mattapoisett Lions Club’s Harbor Days events at a March 9 meeting.
Harbor Days will go on from July 11-19, as long as the Lions Club continuously checks in with the town as the July events approach and covid numbers stay low. As a backup, Selectmen suggested the Lions build a plan to postpone the events to later in the summer, when attendees are more likely to have a covid vaccine.
