Veterinarian Workshop

Dear Doctor(s) of Veterinary Medicine,

The North Carolina Veterinary Medical Board has given approval for Union County North Carolina Beekeepers Association (UCNCBA) to sponsor a FREE continuing education workshop on Honey Bee Health - Pests, Diseases, and Treatment Options. This program is being held in collaboration with Anson, Cabarrus, and Stanly county beekeeper associations, on January 5, 2019.

Due to recent government regulations, honeybee antibiotic prescriptions must be obtained from licensed veterinarians. Since some honeybee diseases can wipe out entire apiaries if not treated, beekeepers need your help!

You can earn 4 CEU’s in one day. Door prizes will be awarded to four lucky participants!

Nancy Ruppert, Apiary Inspector since 2010 for the NC Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services, earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Florida-Gainesville and Master of Science in Nursing from UNC Chapel Hill. She will provide the necessary training of diseases and antibiotic treatment options with regard to veterinary medicine.

Please register by clicking the links below. 

You may pack a bagged lunch or lunch will be provided by Hathaway’s Chicken for a fee of $10.00. Please register by December 20, 2018, to include lunch.

Registrations will be accepted after December 20, 2018, and at the door, but lunch will not be available after the deadline.

We hope you will join fellow veterinarians in this free continuing education training. You may send a representative, but CE hours will not be awarded. Please see the agenda on back..

Sincerely,

Lynn Price UCNCBA VP, 561-601-9872

Colleen Baucom, UCNCBA Treasurer, 704-400-4877
