Turlock Swap Meet
COVID-19 UPDATE September 2, 2020
The Modesto Area A's
2021 Turlock Swap Meet
January 30-January 31, 2021
Has Been Cancelled
Due to COVID-19
In response to the ongiong COVID-19 Pandemic and the uncertainty that we are facing, it has been decided to not have the Turlock Swap Meet at the Stanislaus Fairgrounds in January of 2021.
After reviewing the State and local guidelines, protocols and restrictions that our members, vendors and buyers would need to follow, we felt it would be safer and wiser to not proceed with the event in 2021.
The health and well-being of our club members, vendors and visitors outweighs any other considerations. For over five decades the Modesto Area A's have proudly put on the Turlock Swap Meet every last weekend in January. The decision to cancel the event is a difficult one and one that our executive committee has been forced to consider since the beginning of the COVID Pandemic in March 2020. We felt that the end of August was the latest we could delay the decision and based upon the current status of the epidemic we have made the decision to cancel and inform our vendors and buyers.
We are very grateful to all our members, vendors, visitors, the Fairgrounds staff and local government officials who have supported and worked with us over the past years, you are the reason for our tremendous success!
It is with this knowledge that we will be looking forward to once again welcoming you to the Turlock Swap Meet on January 29th and 30th 2022.
