The Manitoba Agricultural Hall of Fame has issued the following statement:
In light of the challenges surrounding the COVID-19 situation, the Board of Directors of the Manitoba Agricultural Hall of Fame Inc. has made the difficult decision to postpone the 2020 Induction ceremony which was originally slated for Monday, June 15, 2020 to June of 2021.
Every year we are reminded of the exceptional work many people have invested in our province’s important agriculture industry. The Manitoba Agricultural Hall of Fame remains proud of continuing to uphold our mission of recognizing and honouring innovators, leaders and visionaries for their contribution to agriculture in Manitoba.
The spirit of agricultural perseverance is represented through these individuals who have made an outstanding contribution to the improvement of agriculture and the betterment of rural living in the province. Their contributions are worthy of celebration and, at this time, we felt that it would be better to showcase their accomplishments when it was more appropriate to do so.
The appointments will not cease but instead, be paused. Our pioneers and past inductees were never stopped by obstacles; they worked around them. This remains true today and we will look forward to continuing with these important announcements and inductions in June 2021.
