Lynn,

Interesting you should mention a supportive group for progressing in the Master Beekeeper Program... I was just thinking about that sort of thing yesterday! I would be very happy to be a part of such a group to provide support & insights based on my journey through the program thus far. Please keep me apprised as details develop!

Please come to the PCBA meeting on Thursday, January 16 at 7 PM at the Person County Office Building at 304 South Morgan Street, Room 165.   Even if you have not signed up for Bee School (this will be the opening class), your participation will help welcome new beekeepers.   Plan to stay after the program to mingle with students and learn about their beekeeping hopes and fears.    In addition, members of the Durham club may attend.   They've requested assistance from PCBA to get their own club going so this is our chance to find out what they need and how we might help.

I took the class 3 times before I worked up the nerve to take the certified beekeeper test ...and passed it!   Is anyone interested in forming a study group to work towards journeyman status?    I'm thinking about a group that might meet just once a quarter to give ourselves some deadlines and peer coaching as we work toward this goal.   Let me know!

And as always, let me know if there are changes or corrections to our December minutes.

WELCOME AND THANK YOU FOR A GREAT YEAR!

Mary opened the meeting and thanked everyone for helping to make 2013 such a great year for PCBA.  Special thanks to Inge for extremely hard work on multiple projects and to the Savages for hosting our field days.

The group celebrated with a holiday potluck and “dirty Santa” gift exchange (uproarius).

RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED
