Welcome to BVBeeks!
The Brazos Valley Beekeepers Association was formed in May 2014 as a club of hobbyist beekeepers in and around the Bryan/College Station area. We welcome everyone to join our monthly meetings, which are usually held the 3rd Tuesday of every month. Check the club calendar for upcoming events and activities.
The 2023 CHRISTMAS PARTY is scheduled for Tuesday, Dec 12, beginning at 6:30 pm.!!!
LOCATION:
Heart of Aggieland rooms
College Station City Hall, 3rd Floor
1101 Texas Avenue (map link below)

Parking is off Gilchrist Avenue and Foster Avenue on the south side of City Hall, enter south side door or center doors.
Dinner will be served - club will provide a main dish (ham), but bring another dish (main, side, dessert, etc). There is a signup sheet at https://bit.ly/ChristmasPartySignup2023
After dinner we will have our Gift Exchange - bring a gift of $25 or less. Funny is ok, but it should be something people will like. Participate as a family or individuals (your choice).
The only club business will be the election of new officers
The positions up for election this year are:
- Vice-President
- Treasurer
- 1 of the At-Large Board positions
If you would be interested in nominating someone, including yourself, please let the nomination committee know. Please note that being an officer of the club does NOT require extensive bee knowledge. What is required is a willingness to serve and some organizational skills. Nominations can be submitted from the floor during the meeting, but the person being nominated must be in attendance or have made their acceptance of the nomination be known to the nominating committee.
