Since the spring EAS Journal has gone to press, I can now reveal that EAS 2004 http://www.easternapiculture.org/programs/2004/ (August 9-13 at Seven Springs resort, just off the PA Turnpike) http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?city=Champion&state=PA&zip=15622-4077&zoom= 4 will host the 2004 "Bee-Quick 500" bee-lining competition. No one may have ever told you, but bee-lining is a competitive sport, with cash prizes, ribbons, trophies, and much more panache and style than boring old honey shows. The rules and other details can be found here: http://www.bee-quick.com/bee-quick/500 jim :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: -- Visit www.honeybeeworld.com/BEE-L for rules, FAQ and other info --- ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
