Located just 10 minutes west of Atlantic City, this year’s EAS conference is coming together as one of the best EAS event ever.

The week will be filled with educational talks and workshops, scores of national and local vendors, bee olympics, honey show competitions, hands-on bee demonstrations, mead and candle-making, a tour of a large beekeeping operation, and so much more. If you are an experienced beekeeper, apply for the Master Beekeeper certification exams. Or, come to enjoy and share the comradery, knowledge, and tall tales from more than 600 fellow beekeepers. Plenty of free parking near registration. And the campus is absolutely flat, without any pesky ravines to climb over to get to lunch.
Although there will be plenty of dorm rooms available on campus, hotels and campsites book fast for the summer. So check out these sites in the area now if you plan to stay off campus. Registration will open for the event in April?
