Hey, y’all, I have some sad news from the South… with the announcement yesterday from Gov. Cooper, we’ve decided to cancel WC Raleigh 2020. In his statement he indicated “… the state currently has seven presumptive positive cases–including six in Wake County–and more of those are expected in the coming days.”
Additionally, Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mandy Cohen recommended “that organizers of large gatherings in Wake County should consider canceling or postponing events that might appeal to high-risk groups. This recommendation reverses a previous statement from officials that encouraged organizers not to postpone events in the wake of the outbreak.”
I do want to thank the org team for volunteering their time and energy towards making this year’s event happen, though we won’t see the fruits of their labor.
We hope you all stay safe and healthy during these upcoming weeks and months and look forward to seeing you all in 2021.
