Spokane Interstate Fair 

The association has one of the nicest bee booths around. You can get lots of free advise, find out about the association and sign up for our bee class. Its fun to see all the exhibits. Be part of the fair and volunteer to work for a four hour session. Also we sell honey at the booth to raise money for the association, which we use to assist WSU with research.
