Meeting: January 2007

The next meeting will be on Tuesday, January 9th, at 7pm, at the Hillcrest Sports Club. We will be discussing what we're going to be doing this year and then looking at members' pictures as usual. The set subject is 'My holiday snaps'.

We will have a meal beforehand at 6pm if there are enough people interested. Please reply to me at my usual address with your booking.

Fees will be due at the meeting and are R100 for the year. The rate for photographic families is R150 but non-photographic spouses don't pay anything extra.

The outing this month will be to Inanda Dam on Saturday morning, January 20th, to watch the Dusi paddlers start the last leg of race to Durban. The race starts at 7pm and we will aim to be at the start at about 6:30am, which means leaving the Hillcrest Sports Club in convoy at 6:10am. We will follow the race for a little while downstream and then go for breakfast at Crinkly Bottom at 10am.

We are considering moving our website to another venue. Please look at this entry on the blog for details. It would be appreciated if you could come to the meeting with some opinion on the best way to go forward with the site or, even, if it should go forward at all.

Old Farm by Harry Lock

The picture was taken by Harry during a scouting visit to an old abandoned farm we found near Hammarsdale. We will doubtless go there on an outing sometime this year, but don't be too surprised if isn't exactly as portrayed in this pic.
