During these uncertain times with COVID-19 impacts, we want to update you on 2020 Panorama of Progress.

We are going to do our absolute best to bring our community together for Pan-O-Prog this year. However, given the ever changing situation, our plans are evolving with each day’s news. The health and welfare of the Lakeville community is our top priority and will guide our planning.

We plan to bring our community together for a scaled down festival on September 25, 26, and 27. We realize that many community activities may already be scheduled that weekend and will work our plans accordingly.

Pan-O-Prog is an independent, non-profit organization that is run by an all-volunteer board of directors and dozens of dedicated volunteers. We have a great partnership with the City of Lakeville to coordinate city services and support. Pan-O-Prog is funded exclusively by the generosity of our local business community. Those vital sponsors have consistently supported our festival in good times and bad for over 50 years.

Knowing the hardships that many businesses are facing during these times, the board has chosen to rescind our annual sponsorship solicitation. Funding this year will come from what we have in our reserve, and any voluntary donations/contributionsfrom businesses and individuals who choose to give.

We know that many people expect Pan-O-Prog to be held the week after July 4th every year. Hopefully, this will be the only time we need to push the dates out. Please bear with us as we work out the details to deliver the best festival we can for our community. Keep an eye on our Facebook page, Twitter, Instagram and website for updates as we forge ahead.
