There are plans underway for a Photowalk on the 21st.  This will be a social event, a fun excuse to get together for some fellowship!  It will involve shooting, dinner, and reviewing the images that were captured during the Photowalk.  You will receive more information on this event at the meeting and in a newsletter.

Leon County 4H is looking for 2 more photography judges. We only have one judge who has agreed to help us. This is our first year to have a photography group and the kids are excited to display their first prints for competition. We have 9 kids ranging in age from 3rd grade all the way to 10th grade.

Judging will take place in Centerville on March 30th at 6:30 p.m. After all the judging is completed the judges will give the kids some constructive criticism and praise for each one of their prints.

Your help will be appreciated.

If you would be interested please contact Karen Parks.

Thanks!
