January 2026 Monthly Meeting

5:45pm-7:00pm - Potluck and Swap Shopping

USED EQUIPMENT SWAP!

Sometimes Santa strikes out. So this January 2026 SOBA will be hosting it’s first annual gently used equipment swap. Maybe you have had a bunch of old boxes in a size that you no longer use. I bet there

is a new beekeeper out there who would love to take them off your hands. Got duplicates and triplicates of things that you have been holding onto just in case, and that just in case is now several years down the road? Here is your chance to help your fellow beekeeper, because beekeeping ain’t cheap as we well know. Bring your clean,

gently used equipment to our January SOBA meeting. Who knows what treasures you might find?

Do not bring any equipment that has had any type of previous infestation OF ANY KIND. 

Please note - this is a SWAP and not intended to be selling. 

7:00pm-7:45pm Beekeeper QnA. There will also be a presentation about honey competitions and related rules.  

8:00pm-8:30pm Club Business Meeting
