Time	Event Title
8:00 am-4:00 pm	Crop Production Clinic-Norfolk Lifelong Learning Center
8:30 am-11:30 am	Private Pesticide Applicator Training - Lincoln, Ne Lancaster Extension Education Center A $30 extension training fee will be collected at the training session (make checks out to Lancaster County Extension). Federal and state law states a private pesticide applicator must be certified and licensed to buy, use, or supervise the use of a Restricted-Use Pesticide (RUP) to produce an agricultural commodity on property they own or rent — or — on an employer’s property if the applicator is an employee of the farmer. No pesticide license is needed if the applicator will only be applying General Use Pesticides (GUPs) or if you hire a commercial applicator to apply RUPs to your property. If you do not have a current private pesticide certification and you plan to buy or apply any RUP products, you will need to receive the same certification training as described below for people who need to be recertified. All training sessions meet the requirements for both initial certification or recertification as private pesticide applicators
9:00 am-1:00 pm	AARP Driver Safety Program - Lincoln, NE Lancaster Extension Education Center The AARP Driver Safety Program is the nation’s first and largest classroom course designed for motorists 50 and older.
