-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yes the date is Saturday July 24th at the TV chapter picnic. I will be there at 1:30 with the queen cells at the oak grove where we will leave the mating nuks for 3 weeks. I believe Jerry Masadam and Paul Anderson will be putting on a honey extraction demonstration at 2pm and the picnic starts at 3pm. The club will provide Hot Dogs and Hamburgers and the rest is potluck salads and desserts.
The oak grove at the Van Dyke place is a nice setting for the club mating yard.
I want to encourage the members to make up a queenless nuk and bring it on out on Saturday to the picnic. The Van Dyke place is about one mile North of Farmington Road on River Road on the Left hand side. Look for a sign that says Oak Grove Nursery directly across the road from Star Blueberries.
I look forward to seeing you all there.
Salud!!! Mead, like life, is a journey and not a destination. So stop and savor the flavors along the way!
