A note of Thanks:

 

A special thank you to Greg, for his continuous effort and the relentless hours he spent helping us to become better photographers.

 

I want to wish everyone a very Happy Holiday Season and thank you for your continued support. We are looking forward to another great year of sharing photographs, techniques and friendships. We have walked away with something we learned from our meetings and field events. Your photographic skills have improved as we have seen in the photos you share with us.

 

Thank you, to Jay for his continued support and impeccable minutes. And Thank you Aaron and Clif for always making sure the projector was available for our meetings. 

 

Thank you, to Carl for the many wonderful guest speakers we have had and for helping with the field trips. And to our web site builders: Aaron, Roxanne and Dorrel.

 

Our Exhibit Committee: Jack, Tom, Pete, Sheila and Mary, for all your help getting our exhibit ready.  John, our Treasurer, for taking care of the clubs treasury and assuring we always have a place to call home at St. James’ Church.

 

To Linda, for making sure everyone received a warm welcome to our club. And, to our Board of directors, Sheila and Ron, for your support and wise input that helped this club stay on its feet.

 

I’m looking forward to another year of exciting photography with you all.

Have a very Happy Holiday Season
