Hilltown tour canceled to stem Delta spread

To the Editor:
We are disappointed to arrive at this decision, but we are canceling this year’s Discover the Hilltowns tour.

We are taking this cautious position to avoid the risk of spreading the Delta variant of COVID-19 at a time when children will be going back to school and community spread is increasing in our area.

We appreciate all the support we have had in past years for this neighborly and creative event, and we very much look forward to safer circumstances for next year.
