Dave Cox, professor of biology, and members of Lincoln Land Beekeepers Association will conduct a demonstration 11 a.m. Friday on property located southeast of the LLCC soccer fields (address is 2321 West Lake Shore Dr.). There is one hive in the apiary that has overwintered and will be on display for visitors to learn about what happens in a beehive in early spring.
The following day, Saturday, April 9, at noon, members of the Prairie State Beekeepers Association and Professor Cox will install new bees into the hives and be on site to explain the process. Students and members of the LLCC community are welcome to witness the installation, which should take about 45 minutes.
