I was sad when a lot of summer events were cancelled/ postponed because of the Coronavirus pandemic. I always look forward to street fairs, concerts, and other fun outdoor activities that can only be done during the few nice North Dakota months of the year. But thank goodness there are at least a few events that happened/ are still happening in spite of the "new normal."

The weekend is coming up and there is family fun to be had. The pandemic might have pushed the event back, but it could not stop Ribfest 2020! It is happening in Minot THIS weekend.
