[Communications] Sending

[Amy Olson]

Yes, let’s all stay safe. What are you doing for this? I am eating so much garlic that I know I will have no problem with people getting close to me, haha.

One note, when you write to people about this, try to use the word POSTPONE - looking at you, JW - because we didn’t cancel it altogether. 

Here’s what I did with the website:

Made a post on the front page about the conference being POSTPONED. 
Added the statement about it to the conference web page, but did not pull the page down.
Added a fluff story about the Resources event on March 7 to replace the AUA post.
Added the UIC Seed Swap to the events calendar only (since it may be up in the air)
Maria’s seed event is already on our event calendar.

That’s all for me for CCGA today.

I promise to set up the forum this weekend and we can announce it very soon, That will be a bit of good news and is completely SAFE!

JW can you change the website and please remove the AUA livestock fair and replace it with  either Maria's seed swap in Little Village poster atached for the 14th or the UIC seed swap in April
