jamesc 4,924 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Can't think of anywhere that would fit 1200 people AND be suitable for a conference. Would need to be split off to a couple of different venues. That'll sort your overcrowding fears @yesbut Airforce base? Link to post Share on other sites

Charles 354 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Do you think anyone from the north island will make it to Blenheim next year I've told the boss that I'm going, may have to be a good year to justify it (as the other team leaders will all want to go as well) 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Stockley 3,417 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 All going to crash @Desmo 's pad @Desmo was looking for welding work. Maybe he could knock up a hotel in his back yard. After conference it could double as a play house for the kids. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 (edited) We could all meet at CBK on Sunday after conference if you want, it's in "eat street" so there will be lots of places to eat and drink around. @ChrisM @Dave Black @Phil46 Edited July 7, 2017 by Guest Link to post Share on other sites

tommy dave 1,184 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 call us all manuka hives on a boundary fence @Desmo and you'll find there's room for us and more. Link to post Share on other sites
Desmo 228 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 call us all manuka hives on a boundary fence @Desmo and you'll find there's room for us and more. There's a good sized Ti-tree in the neighbour's garden, one of those ornamental red leaved varieties. However, a good sized truck won't fit down my driveway so you'll have to chopper the hives in. :popcorn: 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Maru Hoani 650 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 I have been beekeeping for 10 years now and still haven't gone to a conference. Hopefully I can make it next season 1 Link to post Share on other sites
tristan 4,362 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 I have been beekeeping for 10 years now and still haven't gone to a conference. Hopefully I can make it next season very well worth going. granted this years a bit of a bust. i'm surprised at the numbers they are expecting at the conference for such a poor year. i know many are not going simply due to cost.
