_______________________________
We have made great progress towards our goals of preparing the seed storage and processing rooms for the anticipated March 31st closure. Thanks to many for making time to complete the needed activities in the seed storage, processing, and drying
room spaces by our target dates (list below).
Our plan has a list of final activities that will need to take place the last week of March and will require a group of people to work
together. The Point Transitions committee met this week and we believe that most of these activities could get done in one day if
the preparatory work has been completed and we have a team of 8 people.
Please mark your calendars for Tuesday March 26th at 9 am
and plan to have at least one member from each lab group that works at the Point participate. We will start with a brief planning meeting in the
Point coffee room to get organized into teams for specific tasks and to coordinate our efforts for the day.
