Welcome to the forum. I see you live in Lakewood, I lived in the Denver area until about 9 years ago when we moved to rural Nebraska.
It is very cool that there is enough interest to have a
women's beekeeping club!
Hope to see some posts from you so we know how your adventure is going! I think a lot of us newbees

tend to over think what is going on and miss some great opportunities to observe, learn and enjoy our obsession.
