2021 BOB Fest & 8K Chilly BOB Roadrace
2021 BOB Fest & 8K Chilly BOB Roadrace
Due to the continuing situation of the COVID19 pandemic and the restrictions regarding social/event gatherings, Smithfield VA Events has had to make the decision to cancel the January 16, 2021 BOB Fest & 8K Chilly BOB Roadrace. SAVE the DATE for the 2022 Event cause BOB WILL BE BACK! January 15, 2022 Let's all hope this situation is better by spring and we can have the April 17, 2021 Wine & Brew Fest!! |
The cancellation of ALL of our festivals for an entire year, the April 2020 Wine & Brew Fest, the October 2020 Bacon & Bourbon Fest, and now the January 2021 BOB Fest has had a huge financial impact on our community.
Not being able to hold our events means you don't get to have an amazing time, but it also impacts the donations we make to many organizations and the businesses that benefit from our economic impact.
It also directly affects our organization. We are a self-funded non-profit charitable organization. We pay for our overall annual operational expenses from the events as well. It has been a good business model for the past nine years. However, we need help now to survive the impact of this virus, so we can get back to doing "our thing" when it is over.

Curious who we have donated over $1 million dollars to? Check it out. This list is thru the 2019 Wine & Brew Fest, when we hit the Million Dollar Milestone.
