12th Annual Salmon Unlimited Kids Derby
September 19th 2020
CANCELED
The 2020 Kids’ Derby in September is canceled.
The annual Kids’ Derby will surely be missed by the participants,their families and volunteers alike. Large gatherings require the state be in Phase 5 as defined in Restore Illinois reopening plan. We find this condition to be unlikely by the end of the summer.
Additionally, the Board of Directors takes their roles seriously as guardians of the safety and welfare of the participants, their familiesand volunteers during this event. This year, COVID-19 has brought an additional risk which Salmon Unlimited IL cannot control or accept.
We thank our loyal participants, their families and volunteers as well as our sponsors, including Waukegan Harbor and Marina, and we encourage everyone to look forward to the 2021 derby.
We wish everyone a safe, healthy and fun remainder of the summer!
