I agree about the computer and a projector. We could also have a "show and
tell" from guests and members with a powerpoint type show as part of meeting
entertainment. I have no more room in closets for any more prints. Also the
expense of having something printed up can be eliminated. Granted a printed
piece and its presentation is a good part of photography but for those who
don't have access to a great printer are at a disadvantage.
I should be back from Ilinois for the Aug meeting. Will it be held at Nolan's?

Hi Ed,
I agree we should use some of the money to improve the club. Some of the
money needs to be reserved for a minimum balance for those periods when income
lags expenses. Whatever we choose should benefit all of the members not some
select few. I think the computer and portable monitor is good so we can have a
projected class of photos. If this becomes popular several sub classes can be
created. Some examples would duplicate the print competition, B&W, Pictorial,
Manipulated, etc. I think this form of presentation will increase participation
as the club members will not have the expense of producing prints, and having
to store all of those prints. In the Computer Users Group club they show their
work without competition but with input from the others present as to quality
and suggestions for improvement. While I like competition many in the club may
like this form of presentation in addition to the monthly competition. Often
new members may feel overwhelmed by competing with more experienced
photographers, this form of presentation will provide a learning opportunity
without the pressure of competition.
We have a laptop and 19" LCD TV we can try out for size.

Subject: [cccameraclub] some suggestions for the money made at the convention
On Friday Carlos and i had a long talk about the camera club.
We made some money at the convention and here are some ideas on how to
spend some of it.
1 Give it to a charity.
example Habitat for Humanity.
I like this group because they help our local community, and one of my
friends grew up in a house from them.(not here)
2 Have a drawing and send one or more members to:
a: The Texas School May 1st-6th 2011.
$485.00 (TPPA Members), $570.00 (non-TPPA Members)
http://texasschool.org/
b: Santa Fe workshops multable dates and fees
http://www.santafeworkshops.com/
3 send multable members to a one day workshop in Texas
Pay part of fees and transport(chartered bus)
Such as Scott Kelby's http://kelbytraininglive.com/
Many others
4 have multabe outings and pay expenses
examples
aquarium
LEX
5 Order Lightroom 3 for members and split the cost.
or other software
6 Purchase computer and large monitor so the club can go digital.
7 get diagnostic equipment such as a monitor and print profiler.
8 have a big end of year party.
9 Do nothing and be boring
These are only ideas there are many other things
