From Steve Grissom (via Facebook): It is with a heavy heart I am announcing that the 2020 Galactic Gathering is being cancelled due to COVID-19. We simply cannot risk the health and safety of the men and women coming in as our VIPs nor can we risk spreading COVID-19 to everyone in attendance and our wonderful community who has supported our ventures. |
