The Owen Sound Salmon Spectacular confirmed they will be returning in 2021.
Derby co-chair Chris Geberdt made the formal announcement confirming that after a 1 year absence due to COVID-19, the Spectacular will be conducted in 2021 between August 27th & September 5th.
Geberdt admits that formal plans for the annual event will be flexible.
Obviously the hope is that the global pandemic will be in the rear view mirror by August, but if not, the organizers will alter and adjust to comply with any health regulations or restrictions that might be imposed.
The Salmon Spectacular committee has been keeping an eye on other derbies in the province plus, they were very encouraged by the massive success of the Denis Bester Memorial Derby which was conducted late last Summer.
