Ross Cup 2009 Competition - Update

I have just received a letter from the Reflex Camera Club, who are hosting this year's Ross Cup, informing me that one of the prints from Aperture (we don't know which one at this stage) has been selected for judges comments in the Ross Cup.

This is Kent's premier print competition and has attracted entries from over 33 clubs, so to have one of our shots selected is fantastic!

The exhibition will be held from 12 noon on 21st November and Vanessa Slawson FRPS, will commence her commentary at 3PM. This is a prestige event and it would be great if we had a big Aperture attendance on the day to support our club.

The event takes place at Rainham School for Girls, Derwent Way, Rainham, Kent, ME8 OBX and entry, which includes tea and biscuits, is £3.

I will put some more info up on the club board, but if you wish to attend contact me at stumayhew@aol.com and I can arrange transport etc once I know who intends to go.
