Bee School 2013

Below are a few photos from the 2013 Bee School.  We had a great turn out with 111 people in attendance.  Two all-day tracks were available: Beginning Beekeeping and Managing the Established Hive.  In addition, three demonstrations and two panel discussion were offered during the breaks.  Club members also created and manned educational displays of specific elements of beekeeping.  All in all, it was a great day for beekeeping!
