28 Wednesday, September 13, 2017 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon C L A S S I F I E D S at lighty or easily, but it was the right deci- sion to make. The forecast for improved air quality over the weekend itself had to have made the decision even tougher. However, a forecast is just that... a forecast, not a known. Even bigger than that is set-up. A lot of people may not realize how extremely com- plex and labor-intensive the festival infra- structure is. It starts actively on Wednesday afternoon, and continues all day Thursday and Friday, with hundreds and hundreds of man-hours required for the festival to come off “seamlessly” every year. Those were the days of our absolute worst air quality, so there was no question that it just wasn’t possible. It was a sad, sad weekend for our whole community. What can we do to help at this point? Patronize all the local restaurants and businesses as much and as often as possible! We all need each other.
