2019 Bee School Registration
Information:
Bee School covers various topics such as Bee Biology, equipment, pest management, hive management, safety and troubleshooting your hive. While we have many children who are beekeepers and work closely with their parents, we have found that for younger children bee school can be a bit shall we say "dry". Parents should consider this when registering for classes.
The best way to learn about bees and beekeeping is to attend the 6 week Friday evening course. There is a great deal to learn and take in and that is hard over a weekend. The 6 week long course gives you time to read the book, percolate a bit, and come back wtih your questions; but we realize that for some people that may not be possible due to work and family commitments. With that in mind we have developed the 2 day intensive bee school.
The two day intensive bee school takes place at Bridges House, 21 Mountain Rd. Concord, NH. We do not encourage young children to attend this program. It is a long day and the course is located at the New Hampshire Governors Residence. There really is no place for kids to be able to play or move around much at this location and registration for this course is very limited.
The two day intensive is going to be a great deal of information in a very short amount of time. There is no possible way to absorb everything that you need to know in this amount of time and for those who are planning to attend this weekend course we would highly recommend coming to the CABA meetings to reinforce what you have learned. We are offering this program for the first time realizing that some people are unavailable on Friday nights, but please realize that this course has very limited space and there will be a great deal to learn.
The funds collected through bee school support the educational mission of the cub for the coming year. Bee school is often wait listed. The best way to insure yourself a spot is to utilize the online registration system. However keep in mind that the online system requires payment through paypal.
Online registrations must include payment through paypal or they will be cancelled. If you do not have a paypal account and wish to pay your registration using a check please download the
bee school registration form and mail the form and payment to the address located on the form. However the best way to insure a spot is to utilize the online system.
Individual registration includes one person and an individual membership to the club.
Family registration includes 2 people in the same household and a family membership to the club. Additional family members (same household) may attend for an additional fee of $10 per person but again please consider the age of children prior registering for this course.
The text is included in the cost of bee school.
There will be a half hour break for lunch during these sessions.
We look forward to seeing you.
