2020 NSGEU Family Picnic Cancelled
It is with great disappointment that we have to inform all of you that the 2020 NSGEU Family Picnic will not take place. After much deliberation and discussion it’s been determined that with the safety measures in place there is little likelihood that the necessary conditions could be met to keep you and your families safe.
This was a hard decision to make, as we know for many of you the picnic has become a tradition. We have come so far in flattening the curve and we need to continue to work to protect each other.
While we will miss this opportunity to see all of you, we look forward to seeing all of you next year! Stay safe!
