LaSalle Town Council has voted to cancel the 2021 Strawberry Festival and Last Call Before Fall Festival.
In a report to council, the Town administration said that the current provincial measures in place to limit the transmission of COVID-19 severely limit the possibility of planning and hosting large-scale gatherings such as the Strawberry Festival and Last Call Before Fall in 2021.
They say that a great deal of time is required to plan these events, and planning would need to already be underway in order to ensure the success of these events.
The Town says as an alternative to these events, culture and recreation staff are working on plans for virtual and modified activities that will take place during the weekend the Strawberry Festival is typically held.
In addition, plans for modified versions of the LaSalle Night Market and other smaller-scale events are underway.
