Hello, and welcome to your new addiction! You'll find this forum to be a good resource for learning more about bees & beekeeping. Be sure to check out the tutorials on the main Beemaster page. I also recommend getting involved in a local club. Clubs are great places to find mentors and get connected with nearby beekeepers. http://www.isba.us/index.affiliate.htm

Hi, I'm in East Peoria. The HIBA website isn't very good IMHO but we are an active club.
