 et outages due to severe weather) Monday\, February 1 will be a “make-up
  date”.\n\nKeeping a colony or two of honey bees in your backyard can su
 pply you with plenty of honey for family and friends\, as well as increase
  your garden’s productivity\, by ensuring adequate pollination. Perhaps 
 just as important\, though – as any beekeeper will tell you – is that 
 spending time with these gentle creatures can be a truly gratifying experi
 ence: it’s a fascinating\, hands-on hobby that engages both the mind and
  the body. And there is no better way to introduce your children to nature
 ’s wonders than the gentle honey bee!\n\nThe classes will include instr
 uction on how to assemble the hive\, install the bees\, inspect the colony
 \, and much more. A brief historical background and some basic biology and
  hive sociology will be covered\, followed by an introduction to the parts
  of the hive\, tools and materials commonly encountered. There will be bot
 h lectures and demonstrations\, and there will be plenty of opportunities 
 to ask questions. Join us and begin to experience the deep satisfaction o
 f working with one of nature’s most amazing creatures!\n\nFor more infor
 mation\, please contact Leslie Huston\, ljhuston3@charter.net.\n\nRegiste
 r via the website www.backyardbeekeepers.com\n\nThe Back Yard Beekeepers A
