1. Tuesday 13th June

It’s a Judging night with the set subject “Frame” (whether it’s through an actual picture frame, a few stalks of grass, or even the spokes of a bicycle wheel, find an alternative way to frame the world around you. )
Also if you have an Av for the Open Competition (No More than 5mins) you need to hand it in to Garry or Esther.

Congratulations

Congratulations are in order for Garry Paterson & George Greblo for their Av’s in the VAPS competition. Garry received 2nd Place in th Open Section (There Are Winners!) & George Greblo received a Merit Certificate for his 3.2.1 Av (Hillary’s Last Climb) Excellent effort guys.
