Ardfert Camera Club Notes – 14th June 2013
Last night was the final night of the 2012/13 season which has been our most successful year since our initial meeting in 2009. We began the night with an outing to the town park in Tralee and then went to the Golf Club where we discussed our season and then adjourned to the Abbey Tavern for some drinks.
Luckily for us the weather held for us and we had a beautiful evening for taking pictures in the Tralee Town Park. Unfortunately for us, there was a serious dearth of roses and flowers in general on display in the Park. We met Don Nolan of Liscahane Nursery in the Park who was preparing for the Feile na Mbláth festival which is happening the weekend in Tralee and he confirmed for us that everything is 4 weeks behind due to the very poor spring weather we experienced.
We returned to the club when the midges appeared and decided that the really liked to eat us. We discussed the season and we are really delighted with the exhibition which is finished today. The club would like to personally thank the County Librarian Tommy O’Connor for permitting us to use their excellent exhibition facility. The club are also extremely grateful to Dillon Boyer for all his help and expertise in printing and putting together the pictures. Finally the club would like to Tom Lawlor of Ardfert Golf Club for continuing to allow us to use the Bar of the club House to hold our meetings.
The outcome of the Last Competition was:
Advanced: Dillon Boyer
Intermediate: Donal Stack
Novice: Marion Barnes
The Photographer of the Year Winners are:
Advanced: Dillon Boyer
Intermediate: Tracy Fitzgerald
Novice: Teddy Moynihan
Our next meeting is Thursday September 5th at 8pm in the Ardfert Golf Club. Remember if you would like more information visit our website at http://ardfertcameraclub.weebly.com
