Our December meeting was our annual Christmas Party and it was a wonderful success! We had a great turnout, plenty of delicious food, and lots of holiday cheer. A special thank you goes to Jay and Ellen Schwartz for coordinating the event, providing the entrée, and brightening the evening with festive decorations. We also appreciate everyone who contributed food and drinks. Together, you all made it a truly enjoyable event.

Looking ahead, our next meeting will be on January 6th (2026!!) Ron Thill will present a program on how and why to use the iNaturalist website. If you are unfamiliar with it, Ron will be the perfect guide for introducing us to its features and benefits. It promises to be and informative program.

We will also be finalizing the new guidelines for this year’s Gallery Show. More on that later.

Don’t forget: our January photo challenge theme is “metal” Becky will send out a reminder before the meeting. If you haven’t already done so, start planning your shots.

We missed those of you who missed the Christmas party but hope to see all of you in January. Your participation strengthens our club and makes the meetings better.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
