Over recent months the BFoM Committee have been closely monitoring the developments of Covid 19 Virus and the implications for our unique event. So much has changed and will continue to do so. What is clear is that the many uncertainties that remain for running a large-scale event in the centre of our town with a small team of volunteers at considerable extra cost is not feasible. Therefore, it is with great regret that the Committee have decided to cancel the event for this year and the foreseeable future. We do acknowledge the disappointment this decision will cause but hope that our supporters will understand that to run this special event as we have done before is not an option going forward.
