Programme 2012
PROGRAMME OF EVENTS FOR ABINGDON CAMERA CLUB 2012
We are trying something new this year, on most occasions splitting the evening into two separate and distinct sessions,
the first from 8:00 pm to 8:50 pm, a 20 minute refreshment break and the second session from 9:10 pm to 10:00 pm.
In this way, we hope to bring a more varied and interesting programme to our members.
The programme of sessions is shown in the table below.
You can also download our brochure with the programme for 2012 here: ABINGDON CAMERA CLUB Programme 2012_v3
