General Meeting Format
The general meetings are informal affairs and last approximately 2 hours. The meetings typically begins at 6 PM and we go through club business than open up the floor to talk about honeybees. We have a couple Master Beekeepers and lots of Apprentice level beekeepers (Ca Master Beekeeper Program through UC Davis) available to answer questions. After talking honey bees, the presentation is approximately 1 hour in length followed by Q & A. At the end of the meeting we do prizes. All paying members are automatically entered but you must be present to win.
