[PCBA] [ocba] Making Splits Workshop this Saturday

I am hoping that other experienced beekeepers will participate as  
well.  There are many different methods out there and I hope that this  
will be a jumping off point for some good discussion.  One of my  
favorite things about these workshops that we do is the great  
interaction between the experienced folks and the new folks.  Come out  
if you are able.  There will be plenty of opportunity to gain  
knowledge and share knowledge.
