I found the following update on the SCBWI Discussion Boards:
“See my Who’s Moving Where page for news from Cricket. Their offices are being moved from Peru, IL, to Chicago and several staffers are being let go as a result.
I will post updates on that page as I get them.

Cricket is a great magazine and seems like a great market, now that they’ve expanded into several different magazines for different age groups. (I was going to send my YA short story to them if the contest was a bust!) So, anyone with an interest in submitting to, say, Cicada magazine, might want to stay abreast of this.
