2020 Viking Key West Challenge Cancelled: Precautionary measure taken in response to COVID-19

unnamed
The Viking Key West Challenge is truly a wonderful success, bringing together Viking owners, dealers, vendors and their families and friends every spring in a beautiful setting to celebrate the boating and fishing lifestyle. Regretfully, as a precautionary action in accordance with recommendations of health officials, Viking has decided to cancel this year Key West Challenge scheduled for April 15-18. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in response to the coronavirus pandemic has recommended canceling events with 50 or more people for the next eight weeks throughout the U.S. In addition, Florida Monroe County and the City of Key West have each declared a State of Emergency. The health and well-being of everyone involved is our top priority, and we believe in doing our part to bring an end to the spread of the coronavirus. Viking has rescheduled the event for April 7-10, 2021. Participants and sponsors may use their registrations as credit for next year or be issued a refund. Please contact Viking as to how you would like to proceed. Viking is determined to make the 7th annual Viking Key West Challenge (VKWC) better than ever! More than just a fishing tournament, the VKWC is four days of food, fishing and fun for members of the Viking family in a relaxed atmosphere that promotes camaraderie and fellowship.
