The Southern Adirondack Beekeepers Association will sponsor a one-day
seminar on current developments on the apian front and techniques for
better beekeeping.  This seminar will be hosted at The Betterbee on
June 19, 1999 as part of the Betterbee's 25 Anniversary of doing business
in Greenwich, New York.

Commencing at 10 AM, guest speakers will include Roger Morse, Diana
Sammataro and Richard Taylor.  Topics of discussion will include tips from
venerable masters, advice from accomplished producers and the latest
updates regarding Varroa mites and African hive beetles. Ample time will
be allocated in the afternoon for open discussion between attendees and
speakers.

Attendees are encouraged to bring a picnic lunch, or lunch can be purchased
at fast food establishments within walking distance of Betterbee.


Newly included this year will be a silent auction! People attending
are encouraged to donate an item to be auctioned off. All donated
items will be displayed on the auction table the morning of the
seminar, along with a piece of paper upon which interested bidders
will write their name and bid. At the end of the bidding period the
item will be awarded to the highest bidder. Donated items need not be
beekeeping related - anything goes! This can be a fun and profitable
event for our association. If you will be attending the seminar,
please bring an item to donating to the silent auction.

Registration fees ($5 for SABA members, $10 for non-members) are
encouraged by mail prior to June 12 and may be made by sending a check
payable to SABA to:
               Virginia Van Schaick, SABA Treasurer.
               6477 State Hwy 5
               Fort Plain
               New York  13339

Please indicate "Summer Seminar" in the memo area of your check.

Late registration ($10 for SABA members, $15 for non-members) will be
accepted after June 12. Family members will be included in a single
registration fee, but please indicate if (and how many) family member
will attend.

Volunteers will be needed to help check in registrants and set up the
silent auction. Please consider lending a helping hand at the seminar.
