A WEEKEND FILLED WITH FUN, FRIENDSHIP AND LEARNING

Mark your calendars – the NECCC Conference is a few short months away! This three day conference is a great weekend full of learning and fun. This anniversary year will bring lots of special things.  Friday night is the showing of the last Greater Lynn International Exhibition which will be seen in the Fine Arts Center as the only presentation for the evening followed by an ice cream social.  The main speaker for Saturday night is Ron Magill who is sponsored by Nikon. He is a world known nature photographer who works with the Miami Zoo and has been on all the TV networks as an expert.  The Photo-Op room will have many special items all weekend including “Buford” the bull dog, high–speed flash and on Saturday there will be fire-bellied frogs. Our Sunday morning event will be a Revolutionary War re-enactment with American, French and British soldiers.  There will be lots of musket fire, drums and character portraits to photograph sponsored by Hunts. There will be models, vendors, cameras and lenses to borrow from Canon, Nikon, Sigma and Tamron. Sigma will host a special digital competition which is in addition to conference competitions in digital images and prints.  Each attendee will receive a commemorative flash drive for this anniversary weekend.
