Happy Bucks
President Joan cheerily collected our happy bucks.
50/50
President Joan continue to exercise her rule and reigned over the 50/50 draw. Gary had the winning ticket, but drew the Ace of Spades (wrong sleeve, Gary) and not teh Joker. The pot is reputably $80.
Speaker
Connor Cleary has been keeping bees for many years, but realizes he still has much to learn. He is an innovator at heart and strives to improve upon beekeeping practices, learning from experienced beekeepers and experimenting with new ideas.
It was a very informative and enjoyable presentation, with photos, a video of a swarm and samples.
Connor Cleary of Cleary Farms talks to RCOS about beekeeping in the Ottawa region.
President Joan ended the meeting promptly at 1:30pm.
