			 This week, the University of Illinois announced a 
			suspension on all in-person events and meetings in campus facilities 
			to protect you and our entire community. Illinois Extension, as the 
			outreach program of the university, aligns with all policies related 
			to public health and safety. 
 Effective Friday, March 13, all university-sponsored events with 
			more than 50 anticipated attendees are suspended indefinitely.
 
 As a result of this action, the Russel Allen Garden Day scheduled 
			for March 28 in Lincoln has been cancelled.
