November 6, 2017 Meeting Minutes

Below is a synopsis of the November 6, 2017, meeting of the Dubuque Camera Club.

** Remember, all tri-state area photography enthusiasts are welcome to attend our twice-monthly meetings. **

Jennifer brought the Dubuque Museum of Art prints for pickup. We reviewed the events that were held during the club exhibition at the museum.

We have one new member. Thank you for all the member payments tonight! Annual dues of only $20 allow you to participate in all club exhibits and events.

The N4C has judged our website. Ron will post results on the website soon.

We discussed the N4C 2018 Blufftops & Visions convention, which will be held in Dubuque next year. Our upcoming November 20th meeting will be a planning meeting. Please bring your ideas and help us form the events of the weekend.

We also reviewed October’s competition returns and the September DP category (which we did not have before).

Congratulations to our photo competition winners:

  • Jose Garcia,
  • Andreas Exner,
  • Jennifer Tigges,
  • Kevin McTague,
  • David Smethers,
  • Cara Pusateri.

Keep submitting!
