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.
