I may need to update my tutorial a bit as the format of the map has changed since I did that little video.  I will look at it over the next couple of days and update the tutorial if needed.
 
I have found the map to be very helpful in the past and hope that folks will take a few moments to update their entries.
 
Thanks,
 
Lewis

Hi All,
 
I've had a few questions about how to add your location if you haven't done that yet.  Lewis put together a video tutorial on YouTube with instructions on how to add and edit your entry on the map.  You can view that at  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rn69aX6x6co
 
Please don't forget to add the  "Updated:  <Current Month & Year>" line to the text associated with your location.
 
Thanks,
David

Hi All,
 
Our map of  OCBA beekeeper and apiary locations needs some help.  For the past several years it has been a great resource for new and seasoned beekeepers to find others keeping bees nearby but it's gotten to be a little out of date.  We need you to help bring it back up to date and keep this resource relevant.
 
Please do the following as soon as possible and by Feb 28:
 
1.  Visit the  map, confirm your added locations are still correct, add your other current beekeeping locations that are not currently on the map and/or remove any out dated locations you may have added in the past.   Hint:  You can click on your name/entries on the list on the left side of the map and your place marker/pin will be highlighted on the map.
 
2.  Update the text of all of your added locations with a line at the top of the text box that says "Updated:  <Current Month & Year>".  This will help us to keep track of which entries are out of date locations on the map in the future.  Here's an example of what we're looking for.
 


Tips:  click on the pencil icon   to begin editting the text associated with a location marker.  To add a line to the text hold down Ctrl and hit Enter.  
 
 
​3.  If you see other location entries and markers that you are 100%, absolutely sure are no longer relevant, please delete the entry.
 
If you have any trouble completing any of these steps please watch the  helpful tutorial that Lewis put together for us on how to edit the OCBA map and see if that helps.  If you're still unable to make the changes you're trying to make please let me know.
 
Thank you all for your efforts in keeping the map up to date and useful for all of us!
David
