What: April meeting
When: 6:30 to 8:00 pm (doors open at 6:00)
Where: Urban Acres Realty, 250 Holiday Road, Coralville (see map below)
1. Introductions of officers and new members
2. Treasurers report
3. Club funds. Discussion of how to use our funds. We currently have sufficient money to spend on a shared piece of equipment. Do we want to use funds to sponsor tickets for club members to attend events? Or can we save money to pay notable speakers to present to our club? Make a quantity purchase of items to lower costs? Other ideas?
4. Club apiary. Search for another location for the club apiary? The current location is not ideal. Finding a closer locale to Iowa City would be ideal.
5. Summer Field Day. IHPA is holding their summer field day at Ebert's in Mount Vernon June 21st. Should we combine field days? We could help sponsor their field day.
6. Spring management. Discussion of splits and preparing for swarms.
7. Open discussion. Talk about colony losses and where to purchase bees. No questions are bad questions.
8. Adjournment: 8 pm.
