MEETING MINUTES

January 3, 2010 

Our January meeting started off with a bang. here are some of the decisions that the membership made:
1. We decided to purchase an observation hive from Brushy Mountain Bee Farm at a cost of about $140.00. This will enable us to have an ongoing hive to demonstrate at various educational seminars. Now we will be able to give talks with the real thing!
2. We decided on one of the designs implemented by Jack Coleman for our logo. Hopefully we can now get this put on hats and T-shirts in time for Mule Day and other events. Dick Brickner may have put this on our web sight.
3. We have voted to have our spring workshop on February 27th from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. in the U.T. Conference Building. We have a lot of work and advertising to do before it happens. The reason for the decision of such an early date is this will enable the new beekeepers time to order their bee packages and equipment before the honey flow.
4. We are going to try and put together a CABA Membership directory this year.

Our February 7 meeting will feature Bill Mullins who will be talking about "Raisng Queens".
