Issue No. 38 - January 2010

Welcome to the January 2010 edition of the BCC E-News.

Snow Joke!

Happy New Year! 2010 is already making it’s mark in the history of Basingstoke Camera Club! It may possibly be, although some with longer memories may know better, the first disruption we have had in the last 25 years to the club programme. And, although it may not be generally appreciated by all, but the committee have been occupied for much of January so far worrying about whether to cancel evenings and events or not, making tough decisions, and then having to reorganise the programme. So well done to all of them, and especially our President Steve, who had to make the big decisions.

This has meant there are changes to the club programme for the rest of the season, and a quick look at the Programme page will keep you up to date.

The January BCC News has been produced as normal and paper copies will be available next week.

 

Very pretty to look at, a nuisance to get about in, and what do you do with all that snow afterwards?

Revised Programme for the next few weeks:

PLEASE NOTE: DIGITAL IMAGING ROUND 3 IS CANCELLED - competition will be judged on 3 rounds only this year.
