DRAPER’S SUPER BEES!
There is something buzzing around Tioga County at Draper’s Super Bee Apiaries. Home Page correspondent Morgan Koziar had the opportunity to meet up with Bill Draper and take a tour to see how the liquid gold is made. *Honey is a pure and natural sweetener prepared by bees from nectar collected from wild and cultivated flowers. To make honey from nectar, honey bees evaporate much of the moisture and add compounds called enzymes that change the composition of the nectar. Draper’s bee yard consists of 24 hives. Each hive can be found in one of the boxes that are stacked. There is what is known as a “colony” in each of the stacks in the bee yard. The more bees that accumulate over time, the more height the stacks earn in boxes!

ALL-STARS FACE TIGERS FOR CHAMPIONSHIP
The Wellsboro All-Stars ended their amazing season last night in Tunkhannock as they played for the Section 15 Championship.

The Tigers scored first in the bottom half of the second inning on a passed ball. Tyler Bell crossed the plate, giving the Tigers their first run of the game. Tunkhannock held that lead until the top of the 4th when another passed ball brought Sam Rudy home as Wellsboro tied things up.

This game turned into a real pitchers battle as bats were held silent for both teams throughout most of the game.
