Just a reminder that our next meeting is on Nov. 28 and will feature Matt and Susan Schmitz sharing their Adventures in Beekeeping.

"A few weeks ago while hiking out of a canyon, someone in the group noticed a beehive in a tree. The tree had fallen over and a large branch had broken off. The beehive was revealed at the site of the broken branch."
