NEW BRAUNFELS, Texas – When New Braunfels Little League President Paul Naizer heard Wurstfest would be canceled for 2020 over concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic, he understood.
With more than 200,000 attendees that come through over 10 days, the groups can raise much - even all - of the money they need to operate for the year.
“But not knowing what’s going on with this pandemic, it’s really hard to see how we’re going to make money.
Brit King, president of the Downtown Rotary Club of New Braunfels, said Wurstfest isn’t the biggest of its four fundraisers.
The Wurstfest Association has said that fundraising plans to support the nonprofit organizations that normally work Wurstfest would be announced in the coming weeks.
