Whatcom County Health Department and City of Bellingham Update

On April 14 the Whatcom County Health Department recommended that all summer events – including parades, community festivals and fireworks displays – should be cancelled.

On April 24 the City of Bellingham followed this recommendation and canceled all City permitted events through August 30th.

Following our plan, this gives two weeks the first part of September to put on a 2020 version of the Chuckanut 50k. We have not decided to officially cancel the 2020 race yet as we are working with a race director committee on best practices, keeping track of the steps taken by our governing bodies, and keeping an eye on the rest of the country and other events that are pushing forward. Basically taking in information with the intention to make the best decision for our community.

Thank you for hanging in there with us!
