[QNFCF Members]Holiday reminder: Thanksgiving and staff holiday - Oct 10-11 2022

Hello labmembers,

This is just a friendly reminder that next Monday October 10^th is Thanksgiving, a statutory holiday. This year the university has also provided for an additional staff holiday to take place on October 11^th. Consequently, there will be no staff support in the QNFCF labs for these two days.

In terms of our facility access policies, these days are treated as normal weekend days.

Best regards,
