The McLean Community Center recently announced that it’s canceling McLean Day and events in April and May due to coronavirus concerns.
The annual event usually draws roughly 10,000 people to Lewinsville Park for laser tag, bubble ball and live entertainment, according to Visit Fairfax.
The event also always people to vote for candidates running for the McLean Community Center’s Governing Board.
The board decided yesterday (Wednesday) to cancel the center’s sponsored events for those two months following concerns that the events could draw large crowds, according to a press release.
Previously, the center, which is home to the Alden Theatre, galleries for the McLean Project for the Arts, the Susan B. DuVal Art Studio and meeting rooms, announced it would be closed through April 12.
Now, the center is closed “until further notice.”
As for the election, absentee voting is currently underway through 5 p.m. on May 13.
“The McLean Day in-person voting, stipulated in the Center’s Memorandum of Understanding, will be held at MCC, 1234 Ingleside Ave., as scheduled from 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, May 16,” the press release said.
