Chairman's Newsletter No. 20

Dear Members,
Well here it is the last of my newsletters for 2009, seems like it was just a few days ago we were starting the season.
Last nights pyramid competition produced some surprise entries from previously unseen authors and how nice it was to see them. Jack and Liz managed to keep us entertained, finding some, at times, obscure matching points in both images!!
At one point there were two images with the same number of votes that totalled 2 more than the entire attendance! However well done to new member Roy Brophy who managed to keep Sheila Read in second place, his monochrome image of reflected trees from the New Forest looked good which ever way Jack managed to present it!

Chairman's evening 5th Jan 2010. My guest speaker is Steve Rogers, Project director to The Wargraves Photographic Project. Steve's presentation/lecture is in great demand all over the country with groups of genealogist and other like minded people however he has offered to find out any information/photos for our members. So if you have a particular member of your family who may have died in combat since 1914 or may be a blank in your family history tree please email direct to steve@twgpp.org.uk using the term 'viewfinders request' in the subject box Steve will do his best for you. Steve has access to records that you would normally get charged for so this is an offer not to be missed. You should give Steve as much info as you can about the family member a minimum I suggest is the surname and initials, if possible any known dates/regiments/service/rank etc.
If you want to look at it the website is www.twgpp.org.uk

Holiday project, during this time look forward to next year and think about taking that photo that could be used as the clubs Christmas card for 2010 !

So it just remains for me to say whatever you are doing over the Christmas period have a wonderful time, enjoy the family and friends and look forward to a successful 2010.

To Stan Stubbs, Ray Kemmish and Sheila Budden all recovering from operations/hospital care, a continued speedy recovery and we hope to see you ASAP in the new year.
To Jo and David Horscroft in New Zealand, have a good one!

Take care now and keep snapping!

Terry
