National Lentil Festival canceled because of COVID-19


The Pullman Chamber of Commerce canceled the National Lentil Festival because of uncertainty around COVID-19 restrictions.
The lentil festival is typically held the weekend before the start of classes at WSU, said Francis Benjamin, WSU’s Department of Psychology information systems coordinator.
The lentil festival
 was canceled last year because of COVID-19 as well, Benjamin said. This year, the festival was canceled because Gov. Jay Inslee has not set clear guidance on outdoor events yet. 
Even if certain COVID-19 restrictions were lifted, there would not be enough time to have the festival. Generally, the celebration takes about a year to plan, he said.  ....

No Pullman Lentil Festival this year


Without enough time to plan the National Lentil Festival this year, the Pullman Chamber of Commerce may instead try to organize a smaller events in August to welcome Washington State University students back to campus.
Pullman Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Marie Dymkoski discussed this during the chamber’s Pullman State of the City address Tuesday.
With Whitman County still in Phase 2 of Gov. Jay Inslee’s phased COVID-19 recovery plan, and with uncertainty about when COVID-19 restrictions will be lifted, Dymkoski said there is too little time to prepare for one of Pullman’s biggest annual events.
“We have not been able to really plan a Lentil Festival as we’ve had in the past, so even if everything got lifted tomorrow, we would not be ready,” she said. “I mean, it takes 10-11 months just to plan from one year to the next.” ....
