Would like to discuss the Oct “Travel” competition. Anticipate “LOW” participation, therefore, would like to take a member vote at the general meeting to change the theme to “OPEN” so the members who entered in the AVF would be able to compete with their best AVF entries.

You’re invited to join Ross for a no-host dinner at 4:30 P.M. at the Greenhouse Café, in Lancaster, before the Competition and General meeting.
