2011 State Fair and Beginning Beekeeping Classes

It's Oklahoma State Fair time again! As in past years, you can visit your friendly local beekeepers at the beekeeping booth in the Agtropolis building. There will be lots of information, local honey to buy, people to talk to who love talking about bees and sign-up sheets for the 2011-2012 Beginning Beekeeping Classes. The booth and the classes are fun ways to learn more about the fascinating world of bees and beekeeping. Come by and see us in the Agtropolis building.

You can pick up a class application at the beekeeping booth,
or click here for a PDF version you can print and mail,
or click here for a Microsoft Word version you can print and mail.

The classes are only $75 per family which includes 5 classes (and possibly a 6th), 1 year membership to the Central Oklahoma Beekeepers Association, the "First Lessons in Beekeeping" book and a one year subscription to Bee Culture magazine.
The classes dates are Nov. 26, Dec. 3, Dec. 24, Jan. 7 and Jan. 28 from 9:00 am to noon at the OSU Extension Center 930 N. Portland Ave. Oklahoma City. Weather permitting, there may be a March class session that will meet in a bee yard.

Come by and see us. We're looking forward to talking with you about bees!
