Farm and Home Field Day canceled due to construction

3:57 p.m., July 25, 2005--UD’s Farm and Home Field Day, a long-established August event to showcase agriculture and research, will not be held this year because of the construction of the Elbert N. and Ann V. Carvel Building at the Research and Education Center (REC) near Georgetown.

The Carvel building, which is named in honor of the former Delaware governor and his wife, is scheduled to be completed in December. The new facility will house research and Cooperative Extension personnel, meeting rooms and a state-of-the-art, interactive video conference (ITV) room.

The ITV room, which is currently located in Lasher Laboratory and was initially funded through support of the Hiram Lasher family, Delaware General Assembly and Sussex County Council, will be relocated to the new Carvel Building. For information about the new Carvel building, call Barbara Stephens at (302) 856-1997.

Safe Kids Day, a traditional part of Farm and Home Field Day, will be held Wednesday, Aug.10, on the southbound side of County Seat Highway (adjacent to current REC office complex). For further information about Safe Kids Day, call Mike Love or Ron Jester at (302) 856-7303.
