HEAR YEE, HEAR YEE...First time ever. No Middletown Days 2020

May 18, 2020

Dear Community and Friends of Middletown Days,

To do our part in ensuring the safety of our community and those who attend Middletown Days, the Middletown Central Park has decided to cancel this year's annual Middletown Days, scheduled June 19-21. During these difficult times, we know how important these events are to our community, and it is our wish to reschedule an event at a future date, dependent upon county, state and federal guidelines. Please watch for future dates.

While this has historically been one of Middletown's most popular events, we continue to ask for support from the community. The Middletown Central Park is operated and maintained through volunteers' hard work and dedication. The park relies on the sponsorships received throughout the year to maintain, and continue to stay available to our community. If you are interested in donating to the Middletown Central Park, send your sponsorship to; Middletown Central park Assn., P.O. Box 383, Middletown, CA, 95461.

We ask that everyone support local businesses. Check online for the innovation and creativity our local businesses have embraced; purchase gifts certificates, shop and pick items up curbside. Promote our businesses! The Middletown Central Park Association cannot thank you enough for your support , and look forward to gathering together once again. Stay safe out there.

Sincerely,

Charles Egger, President

Middletown Central Park Association
