August Litchfield Pickers Market cancelled
August 10, 2022
Due to the incident that occurred over the weekend in downtown Litchfield with a building collapse in the 300 block of North State Street, the Pickers Market scheduled for Sunday, Aug. 14, has been cancelled.
As of Monday morning, Aug. 8, the structural engineers have not been on site to give an assessment of the buildings. Public safety is the utmost concern, and keeping the area clear of pedestrians and vendors is best. The condition of the building and adjacent buildings is still unknown
All vendors will be notified and given the opportunity to transfer registration fees to another month or the monthly pro-rated fee refunded.
"We want to respect our vendors by giving as much notice as possible and protecting the public's safety," said Mayor Dougherty. "We are thankful that everyone got out safely, and understand it was a very traumatic situation for those involved."
