Nickel Days is just around the corner, and at the last regular meeting, Thompson City Council voted to make the annual event a special event.
Councillor Dennis Foley explained at the meeting the importance of granting events like Nickel Days special event status. He said that special event status means that the individual out-of-town vendors do not have to buy a business license for the weekend.
The resolution was passed unanimously.
Nickel Days will be taking place June 21st through the 24th.
