Due to the increase in COVID cases in the community of Hopedale and many of the volunteers & workers being in isolation, they have decided to modify the schedule for next week.
On Easter Monday, they’ll start at 10am on the ice with the Dog Team Race and games starting once mushers leave.
Tents will be set up & Recreation will be selling food. They planned on having games at the Nanuk Centre in the evening.
Those games will be postponed and we’ll have outdoor events only. They’ll post a schedule of games once it’s finalized.
For the Festival all outdoor events will be going ahead as scheduled. The Community Feast, Traditional Dress, Beauty Pageant, Women’s Self Care @ the Safe House, Toddler Social, Children’s Social will be postponed to a later date. The senior’s luncheon will be pick up / take out.
The OKalaKatiget Radio will update if anything else changes.
