Happy New Year, Everyone!

I am holding a soft meeting Today – Wednesday, January 11th, 2023…
Since its last minute notice/ heads up, I will be at the library as normal/ scheduled!

This meeting is for conversation, dialogue, introductions/ reintroductions, check-ins, & covering the forming 2023 Bee Package & Nuc Supplier List.

I apologize as I flubbed preparing more for this week’s meeting and am rescheduling it with the library for a date next/following week. 
*Please keep an eye out for emails to follow.

DATE: Wednesday, January 11th, 2023

WHERE: Kill Devil Hills Library, 400 Mustian St, KDH 27948.

WHEN: 7:00 PM – Arrive at 6:30 p.m. to socialize/help set up chairs, meeting will begin at 7:00 p.m. Library locks the front door at 5:00, so follow the sidewalk around the left of the building to the back door.

These types of meetings are NOT just for the newbees, longtime members and friends are encouraged to show up to help share knowledge, insight, familiar faces, & lending hands for people seeking someone to apprentice under in their township. 

**IF YOU ARE only receiving one email, something is wrong… you should be subscribed through our website – outerbanksbeekeepers.com – as well as receiving a MailChimp Newsletter email with the same messages… this is how we communicate as a group and if you are not registered on both, we can not keep you in the loop!

In the coming months, we will be meeting about a variety of topics:

-Suppliers, Nuc/ Package Installation, Swarm catching, & Hive Splitting

-Our Groups Administration – New Elections or a Holding Pattern?

-Meeting Schedule – Monthly vs Quarterly?

-Fundraising for the NCSBA, Our State Beekeeper Association, Sponsored Professorship!

-How can you help enhance this very Guild/ Group by taking over one part of its many aspects?

-Volunteering & Educational Opportunities!

-How you can help propel the updating & modernization of our website – the gathering/ organizing of information you would like to see on our site that also aids fellow members & informs the public…

-Hosting Higher-Caliber Speakers – How we plan on seeking speakers that pull a large(er) audience for events tput on by the OBBG, which also aids in fundraising for our group! (Like we did with Michael Bush a few years back)

If you can’t or don’t make it – we will be holding another meeting in the coming weeks.

NO RAFFLE THIS ROUND
