Another popular summer event in Butler has been canceled as a result of the coronavirus.
The Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival is officially cancelling this year.
Originally, organizers had planned to reschedule the event for October, but Cooper’s Lake Campground is placing significant restrictions on events this year.
The festival plans on celebrating its 10th anniversary next year, as well as some fun ideas for this upcoming fall.
“We have been optimistic all along that we would be able to celebrate our 10th anniversary either in June or October,” Todd Wagner, Friends of Bantam Jeep Association president said. “We know that thousands of Jeep enthusiasts were looking forward to being at Bantam, and we and the owners of Cooper’s Lake Campground are truly disappointed that the present circumstances will not allow us to hold the Festival as we had hoped.”
Organizers say festival registration for those already registered will be automatically credited and rolled over for the 2021 festival. Those who would like a refund may request one by May 31st. Cooper’s Lake Campground will follow the same procedure, crediting existing reservations and rolling over assigned campsites for 2021. According to a press release, both the festival and Cooper’s Lake will reach out to registered customers with further details and instructions to request refunds via email this week.
