Good job representin'!
Good job hosting a beginners class.  We need more education.  Trial and error is pretty tough way to learn.
Be sure to tell us how it went.  Our local club is hosting the same tomorrow and next Sunday.  We have 180 signed up and walk ins are welcome.

180?!?!?!?  That’s incredible!  I was thrilled with 31.
All went well, thanks for the encouragement.

Zweefer, this Sunday (today) we are having members from the club do presentations.  Each participant will receive Dr. Dewey Caron's latest edition of Honey Bee Biology and Beekeeping.  It's an expensive book, even if we are getting a discount.  Next Sunday, Dr. Caron will be our speaker along with more local members.  It's a total of 10 hrs. We also provide beverages and snacks and have to pay the fairgrounds for use of the building. We were worried about being able to keep it affordable so attendance needed to be high to off set the costs.  Our club made an all out effort to hang flyers, post on line, word of mouth, and advertise in gardening publications.   
Glad your event went well.  Keep up the good job.

Sorry Zweefer, I was misinformed.  It was 120 + about 10 walk ins.
