SUMMARY:Indiana Bee School XVIII
DESCRIPTION:2020 will be a Leap into the next Bee School. \nThe Bee School will be held on February 29\, at Decatur Central High School\, 5251 Kentucky Avenue\, Indianapolis\, Indiana 46221. \nHere are the directions to the school and hotels.  Folder pickup starts at 7:00 a.m. (EST)\, with the program starting promptly at 8:30 a.m. and concluding around 5:00 p.m. \nIf you wish to mail in your registration\, click here. \nClick here for online registration. \nBeginning Class\nWe limit the number of attendees to the beginning class to 200. Cost is $40 for members and $50 for non-members. There are two rooms upstairs that you will be in all day and you are required to wear a wrist band. \nBe sure to register for the Beginning Class if that is what you wish to attend as you cannot switch when you get to the school. \nGuest Speaker \nMarla Spivak is a MacArthur Fellow and McKnight Distinguished Professor in Entomology at the University of Minnesota. She graduated with a B.A. from Humboldt State University and a Ph.D. from the University of Kansas on the identification and ecology of Africanized and European honey bees in Costa Rica.  She is particularly well known for her work\, along with Gary Reuter\, in breeding lines of honey bees that detect and quickly remove diseased larvae and pupae\, which is called hygienic behavior. \nMarla was instrumental in setting up the first bee Tech-Transfer Team in the United States\, which continues to help honey bee queen breeders select for disease resistance traits.  More recently\, she has begun studying the role of resins\, which bees collect and mix with wax to make propolis coatings on the inside of their hives\, as an example of honey bee social immunity.   Her lab also studies the effect of the surrounding landscape on the health and nutrition of both honey bees and native bees.  Recent awards include the 2015 Minnesota AgriGrowth Distinguished Service Award\, the 2016 Siehl Prize laureate for excellence in agriculture\, and the 2016 Wings WorldQuest Women of Discovery Earth Award. \nMarla's interest in bees began when she worked for a commercial beekeeper in New Mexico in 1975.

SUMMARY:SIBA General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Pictured above is Ron and his grandson with their first package of bees. \nRon Littiken will be doing a short presentation on the Russian Scion\, a tool to help with swarming in an Apiary. He will bring one that he has used with some success as a visual. \nRon has had an interest in honeybees since attending a presentation on beekeeping in September 2016. After talking more with the presenter who had given the presentation\, it was clear there was a need for a local beekeeping group. So Ron\, his wife and grandson decided to start the Bartholomew County Beekeepers. On March 19 2017\, they had their inaugural meeting. About 10 people showed up for the meeting and they have been meeting ever since. \nOne month later on April 19 2017\, they Ron received his first (and last) package of bees and a month later\, two nucs. That year\, he caught several swarms and by the end of summer\, had 9 colonies. Since starting in beekeeping\, Ron has experimented with swarm catching\, and prevention and his goal is to come top share that experience\, along with tips and advice that has been successful for him. \nSIBA Meetings occur the 3rd Thursday of each month through the year. Topic will be announced here ahead of each meeting. \nNote: Meeting is at our Winter Location. The Moores Hill Senior Center.

SUMMARY:SIBA General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:SIBA Member Don Richardson will cover Growth Degree Days (GDD)\, a topic that was covered last winter by David Hocutt when he came to speak about checker boarding as swarm prevention. Many of us have been following GDD to get a better understanding of where we are in the season in order to make decisions about hive management. \nClimate differs from region to region... even 20 miles apart. By measuring GDD in your bee yard\, there are predetermined benchmarks you can use to know when it is time to checker board\, or add supers\, etc. Let's get a refresher from Don on Growth Degree Days and go into the next season more cognizant of what the bees are seeing happen around them! See you there. \nSIBA Meetings occur the 3rd Thursday of each month through the year. Topic will be announced here ahead of each meeting. \nNote: Meeting is at our Winter Location. The Moores Hill Senior Center.

SUMMARY:Beekeepers Christmas Party
DESCRIPTION:Hey everyone\, we've set the Christmas party this year for Friday\, Dec. 20th at 6:30pm. \nNote: The Christmas party this year will be held at the Moores Hill Senior Center. \nLike always\, bring a dish to share\, be it an appetizer\, dessert...  or anything else that fit's your fancy. Just to give you an idea\, I myself will be bringing a selection of home-made wine\, fermented things and whatever the latest cured meat and cheeses are ready. Home made is always a treat as we like to see your culinary talents. Pictured above is the awesome honeycomb cake that someone brought a couple years back. Sorry I can't remember the name\, but I'm sure someone will chime in. \nThe Christmas party is a fun opportunity to celebrate and reflect on the beekeeping season. Most favorite for me is catching up and chatting with everyone since there is more time than just the break at the meetings. We know this is a busy time of year for everyone so\, we settled on a Friday in hopes it may make it more likely to make it. Look forward to seeing everyone and while it seems funny to say right now... Season's Greetings\, we hope the season was kind to you... and that the winter is kinder 🙂

SUMMARY:Monthly General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:We're changing it up this meeting. Have you developed a tool or method\, or something that makes beekeeping better or more efficient for you? If so\, bring it to the meeting and tell us about it. We'll have some tables set up to walk around and see what others are doing. We think this will get people talking and thinking about ways to improve their beekeeping the next season. \nPictured above is Dave Broxtermans' nuc-top OA vaporizer. Come see how it works at the November SIBA meeting! Hope to see everyone there!

SUMMARY:Fall 2019 Wine Making Class with Walt Huber
DESCRIPTION:This is the information about the next beginning winemaking course being taught this fall 2019.  We have a new venue this fall.  The classes will be in Lawrenceburg\, Indiana at the town civic center.  The address is 311 West Main Street Lawrenceburg\, IN 47025. All five of the classes will be on Tuesdays.  The class dates are:  10/29/2019\, 11/26\, 12/10\, 01/21/2020 and 02/18.  This last class date is tentative and might be moved.  Each class should run from 7:00 PM to about 9:00 PM. \nEach student is offered the opportunity to make a batch of wine during the course.   This is not required to take the course\, but I feel it is more fun learning swimming in the water\, and I think this applies to winemaking as well.  For this reason\, the course dates are scattered across several months.  It takes this long for the wine to complete.  I’m estimating that the topics of each class will occur at about the time in the process they are needed.  In the case where friends (spouses\, significant other\, etc.) are attending\, they may make one batch together\, or they may decide to each make one. \nThe course will begin with the basics and follow with topics in the sequence of events where they occur in the winemaking process.  Most classes have a few students who have made wine\, but most are beginners.  We attempt to cover both the basics and some advanced topics to meet the needs of both groups. \nI charge a nominal tuition fee of $20.00 for the entire course.  This will help me cover the cost of materials.  As with any hobby\, it takes a little bit of money to get into it.  If you are already a wine (or beer) maker\, you may have most of the equipment.  If not\, it takes about $100 for the basic equipment and it will also take money for the ingredients to make the class project.  As you go along\, there are other items you may want that either make the process easier or help you make better wine. We will discuss basic and advanced equipment during the course.  Winemaking equipment and supplies can be purchased locally.  We will discuss this in the first class. \nI envision the class project to be a wine made from a winemaking kit containing juice and/or concentrate or a bucket of juice.  We will discuss this at the first class. These can run anywhere from about $60 to $150\, and probably higher if you want to look far enough.  In theory\, the more expensive kits will make a better wine (at least according to the supplier of them).   I wouldn’t guarantee that\, but I’m sure that is a general truth.  You can decide what kind of wine and what grade you’d like to make.  So far the wines made but the students using all levels of kits have been very drinkable! \nMost handouts for the course will be distributed electronically via e-mail. \nIf you’d like to join in this winemaking class or have questions\, please contact me at the phone numbers or e-mail address below. \nSincerely\, \nWalt Huber\nH: 513-677-8468  (VINT)\nE: walthuber@aol.com

SUMMARY:Monthly General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:If you have been in beekeeping for very long you will find that much of it is redundant: wash\, rinse repeat.  You then look for little hints\, tips\, and tricks to look at your bees in new ways.  Join us at the October meeting where our guest speaker (Alexander Zomchek\, Miami University) will take a quick glance over our seasonal shoulders; square the here and now; and make suggestions for the next 30-45 days that will help to fortify your bees as well as prepping hives for fall into winter. \nThis is the last seasonal hurrah and you want to take advantage of it.  Continuing with his Monitoring Approach (originator of the Apiary Diagnostic Kit-ADK) Alex will also introduce some gadgetry as well as demo his new "hive smock" to aide in thorough and enlightening bee inspections. \nAlex Zomchek: Bee-Bio\nBeekeeping is a lifelong passion for Alex with him building his own hives at the age of 10. He began his professional career bringing his interests in mathematics/computer modeling interests to medical research helping him to invent the field of teleradiography (digital body imaging and transmission). \nWith the introduction of varroa mites Alex turned his attention to honey bee research which he conducts out of Miami University’s Ecology Research Center located in Oxford\, OH (home of Larenzo Langstroth – inventor of the modern beehive). He currently divides his time between developing tools and techniques to improve honey bee stock. Current research ranges from better open mating models to closed systems models using instrumental insemination and cryogenic germplasm. \nHe is equally interested in creating monitoring materials and educating beekeepers (e.g. he is the originator of the Apiary Diagnostic Kit used by the Ohio State Beekeepers Association). He runs a string of “latitude” beelabs from Florida to northern Wisconsin to accelerate honeybee lines. Alex is a national speaker bringing his love of science and bees to the public leaving most audience members wanting to become citizen scientists as he will freeze or burn something in a presentation given half a chance and fire codes permitting. \nHe is currently the President of the Butler County Beekeepers Association and is a Director for the Ohio State Beekeepers Association which has awarded him the title Master Beekeeper - Instructor. He also just received the North America’s Develbiss Award for outstanding contributions to honey bee education and research. \nFind out more about Alex here.

SUMMARY:Monthly General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Jason Morgan will be leading a presentation and discussion on mite mitigation miticides and treatment methods. When do you treat? How do you treat? Will you try to be as natural as possible\, or will you use synthetic treatments like Apivar? \nThere's a variety of treatments available on the market that can get expensive\, especially if you have many hives to treat. There are also options like formic and oxalic acids that are cheaper and less synthetic\, but still un-natural. If you are the proactive type\, you can use natural brood breaks and removal earlier in the season to knock mites back\, but is this enough? What is the threshold of bees to mites ratios? How does one test to see if they have mite overloads? \nThere are many options and even more questions. Bring your questions and let's talk about them at the August SIBA meeting.

SUMMARY:Monthly General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Dwight Wells returns to provide an update on feral honey bee mite-chewing behaviors. He will bring several digital microscopes to the meeting to check mites SIBA members have collected from screen bottom board slides. So bring in some dead mites! \nMites can be collected from feral swarm colonies and other non-feral colonies for comparison of chewing percentages. \nPropagating the best genetics into our local bee population is the best thing we can do in our battle against varroa. Hygienic bees sense varroa and actively groom the mites of each other\, and even go as far as biting them. One bite causes a wound that the mite can't recover from and it will bleed to death. \nWe always like hearing from Dwight and the Purdue "ankle-biters."

SUMMARY:Monthly General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Jim Orem returns to talk about feed and feeding. When should you feed\, and why? To build comb\, stimulate the queen and store honey\, the bees need a nectar flow. Without it\, they can't do much. \nThere are several schools of thoughts on feeding. On one hand\, sugar is artificial and the bees can't easily assimilate and digest it. On the other hand\, the dearthy seasons we see here in SE Indiana sometimes require it... and unless your apiary has something in bloom nearby\, your hives can plateau and see various problems. \nThere are several methods of feeding as well. Jim will bring several feeding devices\, but invites anyone who has a favorite feeder or system\, to bring it and be prepared to talk about a little about it. \nDon't forget\, Saturday June 22\, the Sat. following bee-meeting-Thursday\, we have the Weed Walk. This is a perfect opportunity to understand more of the plants that provide nectar to allow you to predict when it may be necessary to feed your bees due to a lack of forage in bloom. \nHope to see you in June!

SUMMARY:Monthly General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Bring your veils for the first Spring meeting back at Garry's workshop. Jason Morgan will be demonstrating the alcohol wash to get an accurate count of mites in your beehive. If the weather cooperates\, we'll get in a hive or two and walk through the process of taking a sample of bees and testing them for mites. \nBroken down to its simplest form\, we want to get the number of mites per 100 bees. However\, instead of just taking 100 bees (one sample\,) we'll take 300 bees (three samples). A level half-cup measuring cup is approximately 300 bees. We'll show what you need\, and demonstrate the proper technique of swirling and washing the bees to make your test most accurate. \nBring your veils\, a notepad\, and your questions\, and see you there! \nSelecting the best brood frame to sample at Dave Rieman's last year. \nJason explaining the mite wash at a Sat. Field Day at Dave Rieman's last year. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Monthly General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Jim Orem will be speaking on the topic of swarm catching and swarm traps. Jim is known as the authority on swarm catching here at SIBA and each year\, we ask him to update us on what is new. He has a regular regimen of making rounds to 40+ swarm traps he has spread out around the area and catching so many\, he often has a surplus that he sees into the hands of new beekeepers getting started. \nThere really is an ideal size and location for a swarm trap. Jim will tell you how you can improve your success on trapping swarms. Free local bees are the best bees you can get\, so don't miss this one!
