CULTURE Most Labor Day picnics cancelled Northwest Oregon Labor Council (NOLC) won’t host its annual Labor Day picnic again this year because of continuing COVID-19 re- strictions for large gatherings. The event was also canceled last year because of the pan- demic. NOLC’s Labor Day event at Oaks Park is one of the largest west of the Missis- sippi, with crowds of over 18,000. Oaks Park is limited to gatherings of 2,500 people for the remainder of 2021. “We are very disappointed, but are looking forward to making the 2022 Labor Day picnic the very best ever,” said NOLC Executive Secre- tary Bob Tackett. “Please know that next year we are going to have one heck of a party!” It is the second time since 1985 that NOLC hasn’t spon- sored a picnic on Labor Day. Lane County Central La- bor Chapter also cancelled its picnic. On the bright side, South- west Washington and Cowlitz-Wahkiakum cen- tral labor councils will host their joint Labor Day picnic at Haydu Park in Kalama. Last year the event was canceled because of the coronavirus. More information to come when it is available. Daughter and step-daughter of a long-time Teamsters family!
