This is also our last meeting before the fair booth setup, so if you have anything for the booth please be sure to bring it to the meeting. A list of known items is below.

Pollinator Poster – Geneva Green
Bee Lining Poster – Geneva Green

Photos – EVERYONE

The photo part of the booth is where we are lacking the most so any photos you can dig up would be greatly appreciated.

WAX WORKSHOP
One of the items we will be making is wax votive vases like the pic below. So if you have any interesting flowers or foliage that you can dry and press before the 22nd that would be great.



And finally, the deadline for any State Fair Bees and Honey entries is September 20th. The entries for the booth have already been handled but if you plan on entering anything as an individual you’ll need to get your application in by the deadline.

See you next week.
