In order to protect its residents from the propagation of Covid-19, the City of Blainville announced the cancellation of all its cultural and sporting events intended for the general public and which require gatherings until August 31, 2020.
“It is with great regret that we make this decision. Blainville is normally a city on the move and full of activities during the summer season. We are following the directive of the Government of Quebec and public health authorities in the context of this great battle against COVID-19. It will therefore be an rendez-vous for 2021! I thank our partners and suppliers with whom we will be communicating in the coming weeks,” said Mayor Richard Perreault.
This directive does not affect sports leagues (soccer, baseball, softball, etc.) and a decision will be made in the coming weeks concerning the city’s day camps.
