Dear C&DBKA Member,

This coming Monday, the 8th June, we will hold our monthly members' meeting at Whittington Moor Methodist Church, S41 8NA, starting at 19:30.

This month, the topic will be: 'Beekeeping in Namibia and the Chesterfield Tsumeb Association', presented by our President & Apiary Manager, Derek Sherratt.
Derek will highlight the differences in keeping bees in Southern Africa and the important work he has carried out at the Respect Kindergarten, which he established alongside and in partnership with the Chesterfield Tsumeb Association.

Guests welcome to attend the evening. Please let door staff know youโ€™re a visitor.

I look forward to seeing you there.

With kindest regards,

๐Ÿ- Andrew Ross (C&DBKA Secretary & Joint Education Secretary)
