Welcome to 2021. As you should know, the COVID-19 pandemic caused the postponement of Bovina's big Bicentennial celebration. Planning for the celebration in August of 2020 was well underway when in May, we made the difficult but necessary decision to put off the celebration until 2021. Fortunately, a number of the steps we took for 2020 have been easily shifted to 2021.
The new celebration dates will be July 31/August 1, 2021, with McIntosh's flat as the venue. The 31st will be the day for the big parade, vendors and crafts under the tent and a musical program in the evening. On August 1, we'll wrap everything up with a community picnic. As the year progresses, we'll provide more details about the celebration.
We will need to keep in mind that the pandemic is far from over and that our efforts for 2021 may be for naught. But for now, we move ahead with hope that conditions will allow us to belatedly celebrate Bovina's Bicentennial this year.
