The Hasslöf festival, which was supposed to have been this weekend, had to be canceled this year because of the corona pandemic which has a strong impact on the sports club at Hasslö.

- It is a large part of the association's income that comes from the Hasslöf festival and it is an important gathering point as it engages many in the association. Both socially and economically, it is felt on the island that the festival will not go away, says Anders Högelius, youth leader Hasslö Goif.

Many support the association

Instead of helping during the festival this year, the sports association organized an exercise race on Saturday.

- We did this both to raise money for the youth section's work but also to promote the exercise on the island, says Anders Högelius.

Many Hazelnuts were in the race to support the association.

- Everyone has expressed gratitude for arranging this and many hazel people are committed to the association, says Anders Högelius.
