The committee felt that the pandemic would not be sufficiently diminished by late September, and holding a car show, even one outdoors, would not be wise. But, we will plan for another event next year in Osseo, tentatively scheduled for <strong>Saturday, May 8, 2021<\/strong>.

The SKO committee and I have been watching and listening to the news, and the consensus is that COVID-19 will not be eliminated by early May.&nbsp;&nbsp;We have stayed in touch with the City of Osseo, who just this week, agreed that they cannot host our event next month.&nbsp;&nbsp;So far, our only expense is the cost of the posters, which we will have to reprint when a new date is selected, nor have we paid the insurance premium, so by rescheduling, we are not losing a lot if money.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/intermarque.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2020-SKO.03112020.letter.tbd_.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1391\" width=\"218\" height=\"282\" srcset=\"https:\/\/intermarque.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2020-SKO.03112020.letter.tbd_.jpg 300w, https:\/\/intermarque.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2020-SKO.03112020.letter.tbd_-232x300.jpg 232w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 218px) 100vw, 218px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The committee is looking at Saturday, September 26 or Saturday, October 3 for the rescheduled event. (A poll was included in the InterMarque Monthly sent out on April 15). Our plan is to roll all club and vendor sponsor dollars to the new date. We would also like you to confer with your individual club members regarding your ability to participate on one of those dates. The City of Osseo has confirmed that both are available.&nbsp;&nbsp;At Andy Lindberg\u2019s suggestion, we may rename the event the \u201cFall Kick Down\u201d.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay well.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Dick&nbsp;Leighninger, Show Chairman<br>InterMarque@gmail.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AUGUST 15 UPDATE: It is with great sadness that I must announce that the Spring Kick-Off show in Osseo, MN rescheduled for September 26, has&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1143,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1344","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-calendar"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/intermarque.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1344","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/intermarque.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/intermarque.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intermarque.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intermarque.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1344"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/intermarque.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1344\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1621,"href":"https:\/\/intermarque.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1344\/revisions\/1621"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intermarque.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1143"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/intermarque.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1344"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intermarque.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1344"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intermarque.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1344"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
