We are sorry to announce that in an abundance of caution, we have elected to cancel the Chesapeake and Ohio Modelers Weekend (Hawks Nest 2020) that was scheduled for March 27-28. This is a hard decision that we held off making as long as we could, and still give people time to cancel room and travel reservations.
Both the CDC and WV Health Dept. are recommending cancelation of events with groups of more than 50 people. Today the Governor of WV declared a state of emergency for all of WV. Add to that, that many of our attendees are coming from out of state and are in the age group that this virus seems to have the harshest effect on and we hope you can understand that we felt compelled to make this decision for the safety of all involved.
Speaking for everyone in the St. Albans C&O Modelers, we are sorry and regret having to make this call.
For those that have already paid for registration, I will post refund information soon.
Stay Safe
Jim Butler, Chairman
C&O Modelers Weekend 2020
