As expected, COVID-19 is changing the way some communities kick off the Christmas season. The City of Elizabethtown announced yesterday that the annual parade and lighting events would not take place this year. City events coordinator Sarah Vaughan says, however, that an alternate plan is in the works.
Other city attractions will take place, such as Christmas in the Park, which is set to celebrate its 30th anniversary. Grayson county announced that their christmas parade was also canceled for this season.
Cases of COVID-19 continue to rise, and health departments are finding their systems are becoming overwhelmed as the new cases the continue to pour in. As reported Monday, departments such as Lincoln Trail Health are reworking contact tracing systems as a result.
Officials will still contact new cases, but will defer contacting tracing to the individuals to ease the stress on their system.
