The Ohio State University Extension & Tri-County Beekeepers' Assn Beekeeping
Workshop Serving the Beekeeping Community
Dear Beekeeper:
The Tri-County Beekeepers' Association (TCBA) of Ohio in cooperation, with
Ohio State University Extension, is planning its Twenty-Fifth Annual
Beekeeping
Workshop in Wooster, Ohio on Saturday, March 1, 2003. It will be held in
Fisher Auditorium and
the Shisler Center at the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center
(OARDC). It is located
near ST. RT. 83 (Madison Ave) just south of Wooster. This meeting has become
the largest
one-day workshop in the U.S. Last year there were 715 people from around
Ohio and neighboring
states who participated in the workshop. This year's program will consist of
one keynote speaker and three workshop
sessions.
The three workshop sessions will have six different breakout topics. One of
the breakout topics in each of the three sessions will be a beginner
beekeeping session. These
sessions are designed to teach some of the very basics of beekeeping. Also,
a new kids session has
been added to each of the three workshop sessions. These are open to kids
5 - 12 years old
and will offer a variety of bee related activities.
The workshop opens at 8:00 a.m. with registration from 8:00-9:00 a.m. and
ending at 4:00 p.m. Following the close of our meeting The Ohio State
University,
Beekeeping Museum will be open for tours until 5:00 p.m. Below is a
tentative schedule for the
Saturday meeting.
