New Photographic Club in Norfolk

[Monobod]

First I would like to thank AP and Fen for agreeing to me posting this message.

Two friends and I have formed a new photographic club here in Norfolk. We wish to establish a club of about 40 to 50 members who are interested in sharing knowledge with each other freely and in a friendly way, but with the long term intention of developing members skills though both internal and interclub competitions. Too often clubs can loose sight of the principle aims and expand the membership to raise funds for the purchase of expensive equipment, loosing sight of the fact that big is not always beautiful. We hope to avoid this trap.

The 'Watton & District Photographic Society' as we are called is EAF and PAGB affiliated and we meet every 2nd and 4th Teusday starting in September '09 to the end of July, with a break in August. For full details see the website:

Thanks

All the best with the venture David, I'm sure you'll both make it a success.

Thanks, it has been a lot of hard slog getting it all together, but fun too.

The website looks good. Being a (nearly) local, I hope it works out well.

[Monobod]

Yes, the chairman's work not mine, I did some proof reading. It is still 'under development', so there are a few things to iron out, but it does look OK. I like the Photoshop grey background.

Ooooooh - when I'm in Norfolk again I'll pop in. Are visitors allowed ? Lisa.

Hi David,

Sounds like a great idea and, from your website, I can actually foresee a
number of, if not all, the AP Mods and a few of the 'mucky mucks -- Damien
DeMolder, Mark Jacobs, etc... -- coming out the club (at least) a few times
per month, albeit perhaps not (directly) for the photographic interaction, but
more for the "licensed bar"

Seriously, all the best and, if you need any cheesy door prises, let me know and
I can pop over some Vancouver pins/fridge magnets

Cheers,

Jack

Best of luck David.

Not easy setting up a club, so well done and good luck

That would be great, we could use them to hold the prints up on our magnetic display board. I will pm you an address.

Best of luck David.

Thanks, hope you have a great time in Oxford. I will try to make it, but I'm really busy at the moment, both work and the new venture.

You are right, but it should be fun trying.

Excellent website and really interesting programme - I'm sure the club will prove to be a winner. Best of luck to you all.

Good luck with your new venture, programme looks varied and interesting.
Hope to see you over this way sometime perhaps or at one of the EAF events.

There is no information in your profile about your location, but if you are in the Watton area on a club night, please do drop in, we welcome visitors. Do you travel far to your club?
