National Convention May 1-4 2024 is in Nelson
YOU DON’T WANT TO MISS THIS ONE!
This will be held in Nelson and we are very excited as we have two international speakers and plenty to check out in due course. This is a chance for you all to come along, learn, see old friends, and make new ones and maybe pick up a bargain from our wonderful trades stands. It’s an opportunity to come especially if you have never been before and make the most of this amazing opportunity to come and support Nelson Camera Club who will be hosting this National Convention. More details will be on the PSNZ website soon, so look out.

President’s Column – December 2024
I have just got back from our Field Trip with Pure Salt in Fiordland. This was essentially an expedition of the Northern half of the fiords in Fiordland. I won’t spoil the details for you as you will be able to read more about the trip in the field trip report in this or the next newsletter. I managed to take around 2000 photos and will now have to go through and process them. I did choose a couple for this report. The trip was thoroughly enjoyable apart from having a cold for some of the trip.
I am now looking forward to our Mt Cheesman trip next weekend and perhaps a hike up Red Hill beside Porter Pass ski field later in the day.
We almost have a new Incorporated Societies Constitution (Rules) ready to send out to you all prior to the AGM next year. The new constitution is required as there has been a change in the legislation for the registration of Incorporated Societies.
Welcome to our new members Kirsteen Redshaw (Napier), Kenneth Lau, John Leathwick and Dianne Browne, Rebecca MacDonald (Napier) and Ian Ross.
Wishing you all a safe and happy Christmas and I look forward to celebrating the year with you on Monday evening.
James Thompson
