Negaunee Pioneer Days Events Canceled For July 3-11

Another major Upper Peninsula event has been cancelled because of the coronavirus, and the governor’s orders related to the pandemic.

Pioneer Days were scheduled for July 3^rd through the 11^th in Negaunee.

But the Negaunee Irontown Association announced Wednesday that the events will not happen this year after all. The governor’s orders on gatherings for July are still unknown, as are the City of Negaunee’s orders, so the Board of Directors concluded it was best to cancel the events…which typically draw big crowds.

The events usually include the Pioneer Princess Pageant , an alumni softball tournament, and fireworks over Teal Lake.

If you were a major event sponsor in the “Patron”, “Title” or “Major” categories and would like a refund of your 2020 sponsorship, call 486-80-84.

Otherwise, your donation will be forwarded to the 2021 Pioneer Days along with all other donations made for 2020.
