JP, you and Emil did a great job teaching those kids about bees. Looks like you both had fun with that one!

"If you look closly you can see a crown." That is too funny.

The 'march' never ceases to amaze me, and I have been around and keeping bees for many years. Thanks for the video.

I was wondering why you never posted it.  I was a little worried when you kept bringing the kids around the bees.   (Lawyers and crap like that.)  But real great video guys.

Great job y'all.  Those kids will remember that for many many years to come.  Maybe even end up on here someday.

What a great teaching opportunity!  My kids have been amazed by our girls!  Maybe those kiddos now see bees aren't the big bad bear they are made out to be.

I love this!  Such a great way to teach the kids about bees.  There is nothing like seeing it first hand.  My three children are just fascinated as I was the first time I ever went to a bee yard.  You did a great job explaining and being patient with your very excitable audience.  Thanks for sharing it with us.

That was sweet JP how you spoke to the children and showed them. It was nice that the faculty wasn't afraid to let the kids go close and have the real experience.

Nice music also when they were marching.

Thanks
Annette

Great video, one of my favorite so far.  Good to see some interaction with the kids, they might become beekeepers someday.

Hey JP the vac looks like it's working good. the one I just built is doning great. I have put a little 3 HP wetvac mounted to the top. yours looks like about the same. it will work good with your HF 2cyl gen but I have found a 1.5  hp that works even better with the Hf gen  with your box being tight will give just as good performace as the three and five HP using the 1 1/2 inch hose up to 10 feet long. with the vent open a 1/4. It will pull the bees off gently. just a note of info.
