| VIRGINIA STATE BEEKEEPERS ASSOCIATION |
Dear fellow Commonwealth beekeepers, it is with a heavy heart that the Executive Board, in conjunction with the Regional Representatives, has decided to yet again postpone our in person meeting, scheduled for March in Smithfield, VA. The goodness of our bi-annual meetings is the opportunity to gather for Master Beekeeping testing, honey tasting, vendor purchases and meeting the esteemed presenters. But, most importantly, these meetings provide the opportunity to meet and commune with each other, sharing ideas, our successes and failures, lessons learned and plans for the future. Holding a virtual meeting would provide information on speakers’ topics, but would fail to provide the other aspects of an in-person gathering.
We will plan for our next meeting in the fall, October or November time frame. In the meantime, we offer you to tune into our exceptional Virginia Speaker Series, held bi-monthly on Zoom, which provides amazing presentations on a wide variety of topics. |
