Master Beekeepers Program
Scholarship
The Iowa Honey Producers are accepting scholarship
applications for the Master Beekeepers Program. This program has
been put on by Marion Ellis, for the last eight or nine years,
at the University of Nebraska research facility at Mead, Nebraska.
This is a great comprehensive program that is open to beekeepers
of all experience levels. The course will be offered from June
23rd to June 25th, 2005. Two scholarships, of $150 each, will
be available to beekeepers of any level of experience.
The scholarship money is sufficient to cover
the registration fee for the course and part of the motel bill.
Motels are located in Lincoln or Wahoo, NE. We will publish the
course schedule as soon as we have it. To apply for a scholarship
merely submit your name and address and a little information about
yourself to: Phil Ebert, 14808 S 102nd Ave E, Lynnville, Ia, 50153.
Applications will be taken until April 15th.
