>--- Summer Workshop ---<
The Southern Adirondack Beekeepers Association will sponsor
a full day workshop on Beekeeping in northern climates on
Saturday, August 2 at Betterbee in Greenwich, NY. Speakers
include Dr. Shimanuki, USDA, ARS, Bee Research Laboratory
in Beltsville, MD who will focus on mites, past, present and
future, Peter Keating of Lac St. Jean, Quebec, a former
bee inspector and currently a private consultant to the 25
biggest beekeepers in Quebec who will speak on wintering and
mite control strategy in Quebec, and Charles Parker, a com-
mercial beekeeper from Ontario who will speak on managing
bees in the north country. This will be an excellent oppor-
tunity to hear the latest information on beekeeping first
hand and exchange information on the latest management tech-
niques.
The morning session will run from 10 am to noon and the aft-
ernoon session from 1 pm to 3 pm. Bring your own lunch or
visit nearby fast food restaurants. Advance registration
would be appreciated as last year's workshop drew 200+
beekeepers and friends. Send $10 per family ($5 for SABA
members) to Fred Ludewig at 289 Middle Line Road, Ballston
Spa, NY 12020. For further information call 518-885-9032.
