The JARCC Board thanks you in advance for your consideration and for passing along to all who may be interested in supporting JARCC.

Fhe JARCC Board of Directors has regrettably decided to cancel the 2021 JARCC Summer Festival. This marks the second consecutive year that we have had to forego our much anticipated annual summer event.

As the primary fundraiser for the organization, the Festival provides significant funding for our on-going facility maintenance and operations. It has also allowed the club to traditionally maintain reasonable fee structures for our members.  In the end, however, the Board and Festival Committee were driven by the fact that - even with the accelerated adoption of effective COVID vaccines - for now, we still have concerns in placing membership and the public at risk of infection during the preparation for and hosting of the Festival.

Please stay safe and well.

JARCC Board of Directors
