Welcome to August!!!
Who out there is is having a busy, hot, crazy, fun summer? Hopefully it's filled with great photography and quality time with the people that matter to you. I can't believe as I'm writing this that my term as president is ending this month, and I hand over the reins to our VP, Anthony Werch. This year has really flown by, and I've learned a lot from our board, past presidents, and members. We would not be where we are today without their support. I look forward to Anthony running this ship and taking us to the next level.
The August meeting is our yearly business meeting. I hope everybody makes attending the August 8th meeting a priority. We will have at least one open position we will need to vote on, which is for Vice President. I encourage the rest of our membership to consider serving on the board. It takes a dedicated team to keep this organization running, and we literally cannot do it without you.
We did miss a couple deadlines, so we are going to announce the Photographer of the Year, and the Earl Austin Award in September. The theme for print of the month is "Negative Space." It's a compositional element that we all should use in are work, so I expect a lot of great entries! We will also use those points to put toward the POTY grand total.
After the business meeting, Anthony is going to lead the group in discussing marketing strategies, and share best practices.
I hope to see you all very soon!
Rich Wyllis, MTPPA President
