Montana town holds holiday events in spite of coronavirus

LINCOLN, Mont. — A Montana town has held its annual Independence Day events, one of the few celebrations in the state not curtailed or canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The Billings Gazette reported the Fourth of July parade, rodeo and fireworks in Lincoln drew hundreds of people to the festivities who dressed in patriotic red, white and blue colors.

Few of the attendees in the community about 300 miles northwest of Billings wore masks, but people entering the rodeo at the fairgrounds were stopped by two health care workers in masks taking temperatures.
