LPA Members Do Well at S4C Banquet

On Saturday, June 4, 2011, twenty seven Lancaster Photography Association members traveled from the Antelope Valley to Alhambra. A nice lunch was had by all.
S4C President Stuart Lynn presided over the days happenings. The current Board of Directors and incoming Board of Directors were introduced. LPA members Helen Henry and Nan Carder will both remain on the S4C Board of Directors for the 2011-2012 year.

S4C has an honors program and this year Nan Carder earned her AS4C and Helen Henry earned her FS4C. Our members won many awards that day. They are listed below:
