Scene & Heard: North American Beekeeping Conference and Trade Show in Galveston, TX, 11 a.m.

"People always say the same thing: 'My local bee club sucks.' Bee clubs are all the same. All folks want to do is sit around drinking coffee and telling swarm stories... Develop a leadership roll in your club. Don't be a know-it-all, but work to become the go-to person. Help focus the club outwardly." — Bruce Boynton, NHB CEO, Firestone, Colorado (on how to take a more active roll in the world of beekeeping)
