(WBBM NEWSRADIO) - A Naperville group will not be hosting its annual Ribfest.

This would have been Ribfest's 35th year. It was hosted by The Exchange Club of Naperville.

But this year, the club will not be hosting the event. The club's president  Emy Trotz told the Daily Herald that the club didn't plan for it and that it just "wasn't possible" this year.

She declined to discuss whether or not the event would return next year.

Ribfest was previously canceled in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
