Boone Hodgson Wilkinson Trust Fund records
Sub-series comprises records relating to the history, development, and administration of the Boone Hodgson Wilkinson Trust Fund. The BHW Trust Fund was established by BC Provincial Apiarist John Corner at the BCHPA's annual general meeting in 1965. The aim of the Fund was to provide opportunities for the study of apiculture at BC post-secondary institutions. The Trust was named for Harvey Boone, Percy Hodgson, and George Wilkinson, who had each contributed significantly to apiculture and beekeepers in BC. All three men, along with Leo Fuhr of Vernon, were appointed by BCHPA members as the first trustees of the Fund. The aims of the BHW Trust Fund have ultimately grown to include not only the support of apiculture education, but research as well. Records include correspondence, proposals, reports, financial statements, and supporting documents.
Sub-series comprises records relating to projects and activities undertaken by the BCHPA according to its mandate and functions. Activities documented include the work of the Bee Forage Committee and the Education Committee; participation in educational programs, including the Malaspina College Apiculture program and a Tracheal Mite seminar; reports to the provincial Minister; promotions and exhibits, including participation in the Granville Island Public Market; production of a honey cookbook; advocacy and projects in formal and informal partnership with the Ministry of Agriculture, including the BC Honeybee Stock Improvement Project and revisions to the Bee Act; and the early exploration of the possibility of commercial production of mead in BC. Records include correspondence, briefs and reports, drafts, minutes, brochures, and course-related material.
Sub-series comprises records relating to the governance and structure of the BCHPA as an organization. Activities documented include revisions to the constitution and by-laws, development of policies and procedures, and awarding of honorary life-memberships. Records include constitution and by-laws, correspondence, reports, annotated drafts, procedures, and policy manuals.
Sub-series comprises minutes of meetings of the BCHPA, including Central Executive, annual general meetings and semi-annual meetings. Some files from the 1990s and 2000s also include inward and outward Executive correspondence on meetings and topical issues, as well as "Executive Doings," a circular sent to Divisions and affiliates. Records consist of minutes, resolutions, programs, correspondence, reports, and meeting support papers.
Sub-series comprises correspondence conducted by Association officers with the Executive, members, Divisions, provincial and federal government ministries and agencies, and with other bee-related organizations and individuals. Records primarily include correspondence, but also include reports, newsletters, minutes, drafts, and other supporting documents.
