    Keep Sedona Beautiful, Inc.’s Speaker Series June 15

    logo KSBSedona, AZ (June 11, 2011) – “Honeybees in the Verde Valley” will be the topic at Keep Sedona

    Beautiful, Inc.’s monthly Preserving the Wonder Speaker Series on

    Wednesday, June 15th. The doors will open with wine and snacks at

    5:30 pm, and the presentation will begin at 5:45 pm.

    Come join the fun at Keep Sedona Beautiful and discover the latest

    buzz about bees. 06102011KSB1Like bats, bees are essential to the health of our

    natural world. They are vital pollinators, accounting for 88% of all

    insect pollination. As evidenced by cave paintings, the practice of

    beekeeping and honey collection dates back to the stone-age.

    Amy Helfrich, a local insect enthusiast, will enlighten us concerning

    the highly organized society of bees (emphasizing the European

    honeybee), their social structure, survival needs and the key role

    they play in our ecosystem and society.

    Helfrich has been passionate about insects all of her life. As a

    young child, she raised praying mantids, polyphemus moths, pill bugs,

    countless butterflies; and she had a tarantula as a pet. In high

    Sedona Gift Shop

    school, she won the Entomology Award from Future Farmers of America

    for her presentation on Arizona Insects.

    Keep Sedona Beautiful welcomes the community and visitors alike to its

    free monthly Preserving the Wonder Speaker Series, which takes place

    at its historic Pushmataha Center on 360 Brewer Road in Sedona. Held

    the third Wednesday each month from September to June, typically

    beginning at 5:30 pm with wine and cheese, the award-winning series

    presents an interesting diversity of programs relevant to the unique

    environment of our region.

    Keep Sedona Beautiful, Inc. is a nonprofit

    organization that, by acting through the stewardship of its members

    and volunteers, is committed to protecting and sustaining the unique

    What Would I Change?
    By Amaya Gayle Gregory

    What would I change if I could? You and I both know I can’t, but it’s a fun exercise anyway. I would have been less of a know-it-all on my spiritual journey. It seems to be a side-effect of the path. Spiritual folks develop an all-knowing buffer to protect against their inevitable surrender to the unknown, but understanding that now didn’t make it gentler on me or those I loved, let alone those that I deemed not capable of getting it 😉 Yeah … I’d have dropped the spiritual snob act. I’d have recognized that spiritual radicals are only different on the outside from radical right Christians, and that the surface doesn’t really matter as much as I thought. We are all doing our couldn’t be otherwise things, playing our perfect roles. I’d have learned to bow down humbly before my fellow man, regardless of whether I agreed with him or not. We’re all in this together and not one of us will get out alive. Read more→
