Conference at UC Davis

DAVIS, CALIF.—Monday, July 31 is the pre-registration deadline to attend
the Western Apicultural Society's 40th annual conference
<http://www.westernapiculturalsociety.org>, to be held Sept. 5-8 at the
University of California, Davis, where the organization was founded.

Extension apiculturist emeritus Eric Mussen, who is serving his sixth term
as president of the Western Apicultural Society (WAS), says those
registering early will save $50. “There will still be an opportunity to
register after July 31 but you won't get the ‘early bee' special,” he said.

The early registration fee for the full conference is $175, while the cost
after July 31 is $225. One-day registration is also offered at $60. The
conference is open to all interested persons.

WAS, a non-profit organization, represents mainly small-scale beekeepers in
the western portion of North America, from Alaska and the Yukon to
California and Arizona.  Beekeepers across North America will gather to
hear the latest in science and technology pertaining to their industry and
how to keep their bees healthy.

 Mussen, who retired from UC Davis in 2014 but maintains an office at
Briggs Hall, said most events will take place at the UC Davis Activities
and Recreation Center (ARC) and surrounding facilities associated with the
UC Davis Department of Entomology and Nematology.  Off-site tours are also
planned during the afternoons.
