That's unfortunate. I was really looking forward to a positive report.

It wasn't that bad I guess, it just wasn't what I was expecting. There was way to many people for one thing. We started at 6:30, he said we would go for 45 minutes take a 15 minute break then take another 45 minutes to finish up. Everyone kept interrupting and asking questions so that 45 minutes turned into 1.5 hours and the 15 minute break was still going 40 minutes later when I left. I did find another local class that is on Tuesday nights for 3 weeks so I am signing up for that.

Mainely, we really didn't even touch on it, but he did recommend the state site for good info and contacts

Well I guess you can have as many hives as you want but you need to pay a registration fee per hive. 

Big surprise.......

well maybe did have one positive come out of the class, a local woman who knows me was at the class and she approached me about buying her complete setup, hives, suit, smoker, etc for $200. Need to follow up with her
