The City working with the Chamber of Commerce and various stakeholders waited as long as possible to make a decision that would allow for adequate planning for a successful, and safe Spectacular. Various alternatives are still being discussed such as postponement until late summer or waiting until 2021. This event has great meaning to the City of Sanger and allows our Community to celebrate our Country's Freedom. The City understands some of our resident's disappointment and looks forward to celebrating this event with our residents with the grandeur and experience it deserves.
