To Have the Deep River Muster Or Not?
The Annual Deep River Muster is an iconic happening; one which was canceled last year due to Covid-19. Should it be held in 2021?

DEEP RIVER, CT — The Deep River Ancient Muster Planning Committee is asking for your input regarding how you feel about attending an in-person DRAM this year?
According to a recent Facebook post, "It is important to the committee that all voices are heard, and all concerns are discussed regarding your personal comfort with attending the 2021 Deep River Ancient Muster."
The post goes on to say, "There are so many variables surrounding Covid-19 that seem to be changing weekly, and we have no doubt that these variables will continue to change as the 3rd Saturday in July grows nearer. The Planning Committee’s intent, in agreement with the Town of Deep River, is to move forward with full plans for the Muster. We are aware and cognizant of health and safety measures necessary.
