Beekeepers who have honeybees coming this Sat. should keep checking for updates here.
As of now, Steve and Donna Victors will leave Ted Stevens International Airport in Anchorage around 9AM this Sat. to head to the Interior of Alaska with 160 four lb.packages of honeybees. This would bring them to the Monroe parking lot between 5PM and 7PM since they will deliver packages to beekeepers along the Parks Hwy. as they head north.
Our bees are being "shaken out" (packaged) right now. The queens are all good according to John Foster (yesterday). California has been great for mating season so we should get some great queens.
Thanks for the update. I'll be there. I have my hives ready for action.
