Meeting Minutes – Monday, 04 December 2017
President Carey Mitchell welcomed 57 members and family members to the annual Wilson County Beekeepers Christmas Dinner on Monday, December 4 at the Ward Ag Center.
As this was a fun meeting, there was no business conducted. Sign-up sheets and donation envelopes (for The Place) were on each table.
Carey asked the membership to stand for the Pledge to the flag and Mark Anderson provided the blessing.
A bountiful feast was enjoyed by all.
Carey introduced the 2018 officers:
President…Carey Mitchell
Vice President…Jessica Dodds
Secretary/Treasurer…Petra Mitchell
Directors…Jessica Dodds/Carey Mitchell/Candice Thompson
Alternate Directors…Margaret Cantrell/Kim Walter/David Thompson
Librarian…Kelcie Meador
Newsletter Editor…Marla Welch
We played Dirty Santa with those that brought wrapped gifts. A good time was had by all. (One table even had knives involved). Numbers were drawn for the table flowers.
A final tabulation of the donations for The Place was $448.00 from the small but generous group.
A reminder… our next meeting will be January 8, 2018 (as New Year’s Day falls on the first Monday) with Barry Richards doing a program on Observation Hives. Remember…dues will be due.
Festivities ended around 8:20.
