NEWS IN BRIEF FROM THE CLUB COMMITTEEDecember 2009
February 2010 The committee has agreed on a set of amendments to the constitution of our club, including a change of name to “The Belmont 16s Photography Club”. A draft of the new constitution is available for download. Members will vote on whether or not to accept this revised constitution at the March club meeting. To avoid some difficulties experienced in 2009, the committee has agreed that members must show a valid membership card for the Belmont 16s Sailing Club in order to have entries accepted for the club competitions in April or later. The committee agreed to investigate the purchase a mat cutter that would be made available for loan to members. The committee considered a request from members of the Merriwa Photography Club to participate in the use of the Coppermine Gallery on our web site. The committee decided that in order to do so, the Merriwa members would have to join our club as normal members. The committee agreed to investigate ways of improving the lighting of prints on our competition nights. The committee noted that we currently have 76 financial members and discussed the possible future need to limit membership of the club in order to efficiently manage our monthly competitions. No action to limit membership is being taken at this stage. The committee noted that the Federation of Camera Clubs (NSW), the FCC, has introduced a system of awards for photographic excellence. There are two awards – a Merit award and an Exceptional Merit award. Each award may be earned by accumulating points in recognised competitions or by submitting a portfolio of images. Full details of the awards will be posted on our club web site.
If you would like the Club Committee to consider any ideas that you have about the operation of the Club or its competitions please discuss the matters with any of the Committee members.
