Rain Forces Postponement of MTSU Ag Field Day to Sept. 24
(MURFREESBORO) — Heavy rain today and this week forced postponement of the second MTSU Ag Field Day for one week, Dr. Warren Gill, director of the School of Agribusiness and Agriscience, said this morning.
Gill said the Ag Field Day would be rescheduled for Thursday, Sept. 24, starting at 4 p.m. at the Agricultural Laboratory Farm, located at 3301 Guy James Rd., just off Halls Hill Pike.
“The heavy rain we’ve had today and the forecast made it necessary to postpone the Field Day,” Gill said.
More than 80 people had registered for today’s scheduled Field Day, Gill said, adding that people still can register by Tuesday, Sept. 22, to attend the Sept. 24 event.
The event is free and open to the public, but MTSU and University of Tennessee Extension officials need a head count for the meal that will be provided.
People can register by calling the UT Extension office at 615-898-7710, Dr. Jessica Carter at 615-898-2419 or Gill at 615-898-2404.
