Next Meeting – Thursday 6th June – Social Event
1 month ago
by ChrisT
A reminder about our final meeting this season.
We meet at the Tipsy Mercer on Ock Street for 8pm. Apart from having an enjoyable evening the main purpose will be to present shields and cups to the winners of our competitions over the last 12 months. All members and partners are very welcome. Peter Delehar has kindly provided some nibbles for what is a bit of a new venture for us and which we hope will perhaps become a tradition!
Hope to see you all on Thursday.
Next Meeting – Thursday 30th May – AGM
1 month ago
by ChrisT
This meeting gives all members to opportunity to review the past year’s activities, ask questions, and help shape next year’s programme. As I hope you agree, the club’s Committee tries to respond positively to all suggestions for future meetings and this is an important part of that process.
AGENDA:
Apologies
Minutes of the last AGM
Treasurer’s Report
Programme Secretary’s Report
Print Competition Secretary’s Report
DPI Competition Secretary’s Report
Chairman’s Report
Announcement of awards
Elections for the Committee.
Other matters- as raised
The Elections for the Committee is often the time when everyone looks at the floor! Rest assured, the present members of the Committee are happy to continue, but please do not consider this to be a fait accompli; if you might be interested in joining the Committee please let us know.
NB. We have changed our usual practice of handing out awards on the evening and instead are having a social meeting the following Thursday when these Cups and Shields will be presented. Peter Delehar has arranged for the club to meet at The Tipsy Mercer on Ock Street on 6th June, nibbles provided! It should be an excellent way to finish the year, so we hope you will be able to come.

In the second session, show and talk briefly about, say, 5 jpeg images straight from your data card.
Let’s hope the weather is reasonable!
The following week’s meeting is our Print of the Year competitions. As usual there are two competitions, colour and mono, and you can enter two images in each. These images should have been taken in the last 12 months and can be ones you have entered in previous competitions this year, or new ones. Please bring them along on Thursday or get them to Jo by the weekend. The judging for these competitions will involve an external judge and all members- more details later.
