Beekeeping organization now forming.
Saturday, January 17, 2009
A new organization is now forming in Brown County for those interested in keeping or learning about honey bees. We will be called the Brown County Beekeepers Association and our purpose will be to raise awareness about the serious plight of bees and to promote beekeeping in and around the Brown County area. We will meet monthly to share knowledge and experience about the art of beekeeping and the modern approach to colony management. Our first meeting will be held at VFW Post 9772 located at 117 West Main Street in Mount Orab on Sunday February 15, 2009 from 2:00pm until 4:00pm. The agenda for this first meeting will be to discuss where, when, and what times to have future meetings, dues for annual membership, and the election of officers. Whether your a veteran beekeeper, a novice or someone considering the commitment of keeping bees, everyone is welcome. Contact jboothby@browncountybeekeepers.org or mbering@browncountybeekeepers.org for more information.
