CHECK IT OUT: Beekeeping comes to Crestview library April 29

What's the buzz all about? Come to the library at 6:30 p.m. April 29 to learn about how honey bees live and the respectful ways of keeping them.

All over America, city beekeepers are keeping a few honeybee hives in their backyards. Learn what is involved: how, when, where and what you will need to establish a hive.

If you're thinking about starting a beehive or are just curious about what's involved with keeping bees, then this is a great introductory presentation for you. This short presentation is designed for beginners, so no prerequisite knowledge is required.

There will be no hands-on beekeeping, so protective clothing and bravery will not be necessary.

Evening Library Time is free lasts about 45 minutes and is designed for residents 4 years old and up.

We'd like to thank Cub Scout Pack 799, Webelo Den 11 and Wolf Den 4 and our Friends of the Library for providing refreshments.

Please call 682-4432 with any questions.

Heather Nitzel is the Crestview Public Library's youth services librarian.
