Such a shame.....since it's outside I would think it could have been done safely

Quote from Dave’s e-mail. (I should have included this in my post. Oops. Will amend)

“We all hope to be back to a reasonable degree of “normal” next year. We played around with shortening the meet to 3 days to avoid the weekend crowds and little by little realized it just was not going to be much fun if we followed all the rules. Also the Town officials had reservations so we pulled the plug.“

Bummer...always a big part of our September stay.

Hopefully it will be back next year.

Meanwhile, restaurants are all open for inside dining. You'd think Moultonborough would recognize that this outside activity was comparatively low-low risk.

So many of these steamboat owners that come to our incredible rally are from other areas in the country. I expect that played a part in the cancellation too. It is so sad they cannot do it this year, but let’s think positive... it will be back next year!!!

This event is always such fun!!!
