As a new opportunity the OSBA will be providing a beginners beekeeping class to new people interested in this craft. It is not meant to replace local clubs and the services they offer.

It is our hope to give everyone the very basic info to start with and have a successful outcome.

​

Our meeting dates will be Oct. 12th and Nov. 9th, 9 am to 12 pm at the OSU EXTENSION OFFICE 2500 NE 63RD ST, OKC.

OSBA is working with Service Oklahoma on Creating a NEW Special License Plate for Beekeepers. We are looking for your input as to the design.


Be creative with a picture, drawing of an idea you have and we will vote as to whose design we'll go with. We can have a logo in the box shown as well as an overall picture on the plate.


Here are some rules that we must follow...



The fee for special licenses plates that provide non-financial assistance is $15.00, in addition to all other registration fees due on the vehicle.



Size requirements – The area available for designs measures 5.5 x 11.5



License Plate Numbers – Each design will have a mixture of alphanumeric characters to be determined by Service Oklahoma.



Colors – The word OKLAHOMA will be printed at the top of the plate in One (1) inch block letters as shown on the template.
