EAS Report – May, 2022
The EAS Conference “Being Social, Again” will be held August 1-5, in Ithaca, New York
There was some confusion due to a posting on the Bee-L listserv but the conference is indeed happening! Upstate New York is quite a distance and expense for most yet, there are at least 7 registrations from South Carolina at this date, no doubt more to follow. The conference promises to be excellent as it returns to its full, pre-covid format. It will be a full five day immersive experience with short courses, lectures, labs, honey show, and socials.
I will be sitting for my EAS master beekeeper exam. If it weren’t for the support of many, especially Larry Coble, David McFawn, Steve Genta and Susan Crook, I don’t think I would attempt the challenge. As always, I encourage as many South Carolina Beekeepers to register for the conference. Road trip!
Respectfully submitted,
Nancy Simpson
South Carolina EAS Director
