Toronto. I made the executive meeting this time (president Clint called to check-up just as I was on my way). I managed some rather cryptic notes this time and can cover things as I wait for David’s very prompt minutes. The photo below shows Christopher Creighton in action. Chris will be our speaker for the November Event.

The 31st executive meeting via ZOOM was held on Wednesday evening, November 2nd. Celio has worked his magic for a speaker line-up well into next year. While he provided a schedule in some detail, I just noted the most imminent speaker (above) – November’s Christopher Creighton. His talk is titled: “Cirkut & Panoramic Photography with Christopher Creighton”. The talk is already up on Eventbrite and will be posted here very shortly.
While we plan to continue the PHSC Newsletter, the November 2022 edition must be skipped since David is tied up on the next issue of the journal (and some technical issues between Affinity Publisher and Windows 10). Nevertheless, if you would like a personal copy but haven’t joined up as yet, just drop me a note at news@phsc.ca.
Our membership secretary summarized membership as of October 31st. Also of note, an active investigation is underway for an alternative meeting locale with all the amenities of Memorial Hall plus faster, more reliable internet facilitating joint in person and ZOOM meetings.
We are doing another auction this fall on December 17th at the usual place in Long Branch (south west Toronto). It will offer mainly estate lots (and hopefully member lots too). Details and photos will be posted as they are known.
Regretfully our VP Ashley Cook is departing for greener fields. In the interim, Les Jones has agreed to fill the position pending a full time VP. Meanwhile, the Instagram posts by Ms Mina Markovic are being very well received by readers of that platform (the link to our Instagram page is here at the right top).
Like I said before, “Have a great fall/winter and lets hope the seventh wave of COVID-19 and its restrictions are very modest at best!”.
