SUMMARY:SIBA General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:For November\, Jeff Montag presents! \n"As a nuc and queen producer\, I find that many prospective and new beekeepers have a lot of misgivings about what they should expect in the buildup of their colony. \nI plan to present the steps “from start to honey”\, for those who I mentor.  The year-plus progression in taking a new colony from start (nuc\, swarm\, package)\, with all new equipment\, to a honey producing hive. \nWhile it will be targeted for the new beekeepers who are looking forward to that first honey harvest\, it will provide great opportunity for our more experienced members to add in their thoughts and how they may vary the steps." \nSIBA Meetings occur the 3rd Thursday of each month through the year. Topics are announced here ahead of each meeting.

SUMMARY:SIBA Monthly Meeting - Swarm Trapping
DESCRIPTION:Who doesn't want FREE BEES? Duane Bischoff will be leading the timely topic of swarms and swarm catching. He'll cover building a swarm trap (the different types of boxes and materials that are used)\, and answer the questions of how\, where and when to hang them. Once you've caught a swarm\, then what? How do you get it home and into a deep hive box to start growing your apiary? Bee scions will also be discussed as an option to try and catch swarms from your own apiary because sooner or later\, your bees are going to swarm. Scions and swarm traps help catch both your own bees\, and other swarms. Join us in April at the Sunman American Legion and bring your questions! \nIf you've missed a previous newsletter\, find them all archived here. \nSIBA Meetings occur the 3rd Thursday of each month through the year with topics being added to the event ahead of each meeting.

SUMMARY:SIBA Monthly Meeting - Mite Management
DESCRIPTION:For May\, Jason Morgan will be covering the topic of varroa mites with an in-hive demonstration. We'll be washing two nucs of bees and then transferring them into 10-frame colonies. Bring your veils and your questions and hope for decent weather. \n"The process of monitoring mite loads in a hive is daunting to some beekeepers. Whether it's the seemingly tedious process of getting the best sample\, or the math that happens after you have your results\, sometimes\, measuring mites in the hive just doesn't get done. This has to be the single most important thing you do (at the proper times in the season) for your most successful beekeeping. My goal is to shed light on the process of taking a sample\, doing a simple math formula with the number of mites you find\, and determining if a hive needs treatment or not. If you take care of the mites\, the bees tend to take care of the rest." \nJoin us Thurs. May 20th at 6:30pm at the Sunman Legion\, and bring all your mite questions. \n-- \nIf you've missed a previous newsletter\, find them all archived here. \nSIBA Meetings occur the 3rd Thursday of each month through the year with topics being added to the event ahead of each meeting.

SUMMARY:SIBA Monthly Meeting - Mike Bentz
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Mike Bentz will lead a discussion on practical beekeeping tips and tricks. Mike is also a queen breeder and is part of the Indiana Queen Breeders Association. As we go through several hives in our apiaries\, it's nice to have the right things with us... and it's nice to have done the right preparations earlier in the season to benefit from those preparations later when time is short and you have lot's to do. \nFrom combining hives\, to adding additional wax to your foundation frames before putting them in your hives... to other practical tips and tricks\, Mike will enlighten us! \nBring your questions and maybe Mike will take a second to address it! See you at the Sunman American Legion this Thursday at 6:30pm! \nIf you've missed a previous newsletter\, find them all archived here. \nSIBA Meetings occur the 3rd Thursday of each month through the year with topics being added to the event ahead of each meeting.

SUMMARY:SIBA Monthly Meeting - Candy Boards
DESCRIPTION:Duane Bischoff will emcee the meeting while Dave Broxterman demonstrates and discusses the all-valuable candy board. If your hives are light on honey going into the winter\, the candy board is your friend. We see the candy board as sort of a cheap insurance policy. Let's consider some benefits: \n\nIf the bees deplete all the honey stores\, they hit the candy board and this may help feed them for the remainder of the winter\, or at least until you look in the hive again.\nCondensation is a big concern in the hive. Cold air outside and warm bees inside make moisture. This moisture can collect on the top of the hive. The candy board will absorb most\, if not all the moisture into the sugar and likely keep it from dropping back down on to the cluster. Wet bees will die.\nThere is also a hole that passes up through the candy board and a 5/8 inch hole is drilled through the front. See the pictures and the video. Not only does this provide an upper entrance (in the event dead bees clog the lower entrance over the winter)\, it also allows warm humid air from inside the hive to exit out this hole to prevent condensation in the hive.\n\nBefore the meeting\, here's some more info\, and a video on candy boards. Take a look and bring your questions to the meeting. Let's get ready to "candy up" and overwinter some bees! \nIf you've missed a previous newsletter\, find them all archived here. \nSIBA Meetings occur the 3rd Thursday of each month through the year with topics being added to the event ahead of each meeting.

SUMMARY:SIBA Monthly Meeting - Meadmaking
DESCRIPTION:Post meeting: Download the Meadmaking 101 slide deck \nMany of you know our club librarian Don Burkart. He has been a VERY successful first\, and second-year beekeeper. What you may not know is that Don is a super-talented winemaker. I couldn't be more thrilled. If you have ever thought about taking up wine or mead-making\, this is absolutely not a session to miss! \n"Like Zeus\, the god Dionysus was raised in a cave and fed on honey. Today he is viewed as the god of wine\, but his worship came earlier than wine\, from the time when mead was the major alcoholic beverage." \nDon has been making wine for over 20 years\, and will be sharing a few of his tips and tricks on how to produce mead from honey\, an alcoholic drink similar to wine. He will be taking us through step-by-step instructions on the process and will cover some terminology\, hardware\, and ingredients you will need to make your own 'nectar of the gods'. \nIf you've missed a previous newsletter\, find them all archived here. \nSIBA Meetings occur the 3rd Thursday of each month through the year with topics being added to the event ahead of each meeting.
