A BIG "Thank you"! goes out from Chichester Camera Club members to everyone who visited the exhibition this year and we are especially grateful for so much encouraging, positive feedback. Without you the exhibition would simply not exist. All money raised on the door, in the equipment sale, in the raffle and in the sale of refreshments and lunch is essential to club funds and enables the club to continue running in the manner to which it has become accustomed!
To all of you who got involved in any aspect of this year's exhibition from organising, exhibiting, setting up, cooking, washing up, manning the doors and all the other myriad tasks, which however small and menial, are essential to the smooth running of the show, to the final disassembly and packing away. As ever it was a huge team effort which paid off in spades.
The exhibition was open longer than ever this year and despite numbers being slightly down on the Saturday, no doubt due to the attrocious weather, a steady stream of visitors came through the doors on Sunday right up to the last few minutes before close of play at 3pm. Once the attendance figures are in they will be published on this page so please check back soon. Also on this page will be a few photos from the exhibition and if any of you have photos that you took at the exhibition and would like to share them here please email them to admin@chichestercameraclub.org.uk.
A message from our Chairman:
"Hi Everyone
What a great weekend.
To those who didn't make it - you missed a really good exhibition - and to those who did - thank you for helping to make it so successful.
As we all know, Iain McGowan starts work on the exhibition 12 months in advance, and is working on the final outcome right up to the Friday night before. There is a lot of organisining and arranging to be carried out for such an event, and with the help of so many members of the club, it successfully comes to fruition each year.
On behalf of myself and the committee I would like to thank Iain and ALL those members who have helped in whatever capacity to make this years exhibition again so successful.
THANK YOU very much".
