Event Description

The first meeting of the Kits Urban Bees Collaborative = beginning our classes with Markus Storhas of Bee in Bloom Apiary will be this coming TUESDAY - JUNE 19th, 2012 from 6-8 pm at The Billy
Bishop VFW Hall, 1407 Laburnum Street.

(Just off Cornwall Avenue, between the Kits Beach and Maple street stops of the #2 & #22 buses)

*** Please RSVP yes or no ... so we know about how many people to expect for the Tuesday meeting. ***

This first meeting will be bee theory and questions and the second
meeting will be Friday when Markus shows us one of his hives at his house.

The ongoing class, which will meet several more times over the next
two months, will be limited to a small group of folks who will be raising bees and / or helping to take care of the Kits Urban Bees Collaborative's hive.

No previous beekeeping knowledge is necessary just a commitment to follow through with the hive tending.

This fabulous opportunity has been made possible through a Greenest City Fund neighborhood small grant, administered through the Kitsilano Neighborhood House, with funds from
the Vancouver Foundation.

Look forward to BEE ing with you,

Pia Massie
