President's Message

September 2021

Being president or board member of LCBA is never dull, LCBA beginner classes, world’s best Field Day, world’s best County Fair, End of Summer Classic, planning meetings, bee yard classes, board meetings and I'm sure more.

It is difficult to keep up the standard and reach even higher than the year before, but this current board seems to do so effortlessly. We are looking for fresh ideas and members to help press LCBA on into the future. You do not need to be experienced in anyway, we have all learned on the job and I am sure you can as well.

Nominations are being accepted for all positions of office in LCBA for the year 2022. Please see any board member to volunteer or nominate any individual you think can and would help at our next meeting. Nominations close at the Nov. meeting and elections take place at the Dec. meeting!

Oct. 8th meeting will be our annual fall banquet and auction. It has always been great fun and
entertainment for all attendees, if you have never attended an LCBA fall banquet/auction make sure you put this event on your calendar and you will never miss another! See other pertinent information elsewhere in this edition of the Buzzzz. We will also have a honey tasting contest at the Nov. 12th meeting and those taster bottles will be handed out at the Oct. 8th meeting. Of course the annual trophy will be awarded at the Dec. 10th meeting only the best need enter, which means ME.
