June 2023 News

Hello all.  As I write this, the club has come to the end of our official meetings for the past year, and a successful one it has been. Membership remains steady but there is always room for more. We held the AGM earlier in the month to which the Committee was re-elected . The evening concluded with a presentation by Robin Shorrock on a recent visit to Northern Ireland, very entertaining. Thank you Robin.

Our second Events Cup visit took place on Tuesday 9th May under reasonable conditions. We have also had a combined  “ walk Garstang “ with Morecambe Camera Club. A group of 17 split into one member from each club wandering the delights of the town searching for photographic opportunities.  A similar evening will take place later in the summer, this time in Heysham.

The club has been involved in judging a photographic competition run by Garstang Primary School involving pupils in two groups ie. Key Stages 1 and 2. Presentations to the winners will take place in a few week’s time. Keep your eyes on the Garstang Courier for a report.

Although we are technically “out of season “ there is much taking place over the summer.

June 7th…..a trip to the sand dunes at Ainsdale photographing insects and small creatures.

June 11th……Events Cup no. 3.  Gresgarth Gardens.

The Club will have a stall at this year’s  Garstang Show promoting itself along with a small display of prints so come along and have a chat and see what we are about.

For further details on any points please link in to our website given below.  I wish you all a good summer >
