Wish I could attend. If I was close, I'd be there. I heard him speak last year at WAS and talked with him a bit between session and during sessions I wasn't interested in.

I wish I could get my club interested in bringing him here to Oregon.

Do let us know how it went, when it is over and done with.

Awesome Mike, Sounds Great. The queen rearing class I took this summer here in P.A. really opened my eyes and was fun. If I lived close I'd be there.
I hope you post some pics from the experience. Nice Work!!! VW

All spots are now filled. Thanks for the interest!

I went to your website, you're selling more bees in a nuc than I got when I bought my hive, I was just buying boxes... Got the where from there, didn't get the when, might want to attend.

If new beeks are allowed. This is a master's class.

New beeks are allowed. What i mean by a master class is that he's not going to go over a lot of rudimentary stuff. Its no beginner class but at the same time its not like a college course. LOL I promise though you would learn something.

[Gypsi]

My suit has a lot of stains and spills on it, but I've never taken a bee class, and I started intensive learning in July, beating back mites with powdered sugar (successfully), and fighting off shb, wax moth and robber bees. So I've got the basics. I've also got a job scheduled for the 29th. Will see if I can move it and get back with you, if you still have a spot.

Gypsi

[Kingfisher Apiaries]

I've got one spot left if you or anyone else is interested.

I'm not going to make it, I have to work. Some other lucky soul can go.

I am formerly from Michigan and belonged to the State Bee Club there and was lucky enough to hear Dr. Connor speak on several occasions. (He is a native Michigander.) You guys are gonna have a great class! He is a great speaker. Makes me want to move back to Michigan!

[Kingfisher Apiaries]

Thanks to all that came. Was a fun day for everyone I think we all learned something.

After all the buildup...that's all you're going to say?
