AGM 2009 Report
Ripon Photographic Society A G M 2009
In her opening address our President Sarah Harrison felt that we had had a very successful year. Membership was slightly up, The tutorials and lectures had been informative, and interesting. The Exhibition in the new venue had been excellent with maximum print entry of high quality.
She introduced our treasurer Andrew Liscott, who said the club was in a sound financial position.
The two Programme secretaries outlined some of the years successes and were positive next year would be even better. Paul Bullock said competition entries had been so high a limit may have to be imposed..
The YPU representative David Morland resigned from the committee after 19 years, his experience and enthusiasm will be sadly missed.
Sarah then proposed Diane Bowes as our next president who in turn proposed Kathryn Carter as vice president, both were accepted enthusiastically by members.
In closing Sarah noted that next year the club will have it's 60 year anniversary, and some major events are planned.
In the disposable camera competition Keith Wagner won the print prize and Denise Carrigan and Kathryn Carter were joint winners of the sheet prize.

Questionnaire
Dear Members
Please see attached questionnaire. I know a lot of you took a copy home
the other week but just in case you have lost it.....
Could you bring the completed questionnaire back this Monday so the
committee especially Di and myself can get an idea of what you would
like to do and see and hopefully incorporate it in the new programme.
If you forget we really need it by the night of the AGM.
Alternatively, please email it to me at either this email address or
Thanks
Kathryn
