Cancellation of meetings for Animal Science and JR Livestock due to weather

Good morning!
Tropical Storm Javier is coming!!  The rain is quickly approaching Casa Grande today.  The national weather service is predicting more rain throughout today and through the evening hours.  Driving conditions are not good for all of us to travel to the Pinal County 4-H Animal Science meeting tonight and the JR. Livestock meeting tomorrow night.  BOTH meetings have been cancelled!
Both meetings will be re-scheduled for another evening very soon.
Thank you for your cooperation and we hope you stay safe and dry!!
