Club Services
What the club actually does, month to month, for members and for the wider community.
Our purpose
Helping beekeepers at whatever level they may be at
Our organization is dedicated to helping beekeepers at whatever level they may be at. Each month at our meetings we have question and answer sessions and a presentation.
Monthly newsletter
All members receive a monthly newsletter with timely reminders, club events, upcoming events, classes and items of interest to beekeepers.
Swarm and colony removal
We have many members that are willing to come and remove swarms and even remove colonies of bees from structures. Check out our Swarm Catchers page for contact information.
Classes and membership
For information on classes that are available at certain times of the year, check our Membership and Classes pages for details of how to join the club or register for a class.
Meetings and Q&A
Each month we open with a question and answer session, then a presentation from a guest speaker or an experienced member. Visitors are welcome.
Community education
We attend local fairs and farming functions and provide a place where the general public can ask questions and get information. Our members often volunteer in the public schools to do presentations for our children.
Every year
Field days and the equipment auction
Reading about a hive inspection is not the same as doing one. Field days put members around an open hive with people who can tell them what they are looking at. The auction, held every other year, is where members buy and sell used equipment — often the cheapest way to start a second hive.
