What was supposed to be a celebratory time for the Town of Carberry has taken a troubling turn. In a public notice on their website and on social media, the town announced they were postponing the annual Homecoming Festival “due to a possible breach of the Homecoming committee’s vision, values, integrity, and transparency”.
“An internal investigation has begun into the conduct of a previous member that has been removed from the committee,” reads the notice. “We recognize postponing Homecoming is going to cause issues but we as a collective have agreed this is the best decision going forward for everyone involved.”
The Homecoming had been scheduled for August 23. The town asked sponsors, vendors, and other contributors who haven’t heard from them yet to reach out to them at prairieharvestfestival@hotmail.com.
