Fellow Beekeepers,
The November meeting of the Beekeepers of the Susquehanna Valley will be held on 11/17 from 7-9 pm at the Christ Memorial Episcopal Church in Danville. The church is located at 120 East Market Street.
Our topics for November include:
– What you should be doing right now (standard monthly topic!)
– Winterproofing your Hives
– Winter Feeding
– Mite Resistance in Bees
– Recap of the State MeetingRemember: Any club member is encouraged to speak on a topic of their choice! That’s a great way to learn more about beekeeping.
December 8th: Bee(r) Planning session at Old Forge Brewing Company on Mill Street in Danville, 7 PM. Bring topics and ideas 🙂
Note: We’re not planning to have a regular club meeting in December unless you all want one. Let us know at the November meeting.
We’re planning to introduce a new recurring theme: Mythbusters! There seems to be a lot of unscientific evidence floating around regarding our profession. If you’ve read or heard something that doesn’t sound quite right – let us know. We’ll dive in and see if we can uncover the truth!
The church lets us use their meeting room free of charge. As a way of saying thank you, please contribute non-perishable foods to their food drive – the collection bin is in the meeting room.
Don’t miss the State Meeting! It’s being held November 13 and 14 in Lewisburg. For more information, visit:
