Club meet-up at Lough Key Forest Park

 Boyle Camera Club members to meet-up at Lough Key Forest Park.
 On Saturday 25th of October and Sunday 26th of October at 12pm on both days,
 BCC members are asked to meet-up on either day or both if you feel fit to do so at the main building.
 Members will need to bring their camera equipment, eg. camera and tripod - and the price of a coffee/tea to shop at the cafe,
 The November monthly motivation theme is "Autumn" so there we will split up or in a group walking
 around the park snapping every opportunity we get from the autumn season celebrated and spectated.
 We do ask the public to be weary if you see a camera pointed in your direction as it may not be the
 photographers intension to photograph other people only to capture the autumn season. 
 P.O.T.Y points will be awarded to anyone in attendance and this will add to your score come the end of the year.
 This maybe the Club's last outing of the year so a message to members is for you not to miss out, and
 come along for the chat and banter.
 For the anyone that knows Lough Key Forest Park this should be an enjoyable bank holiday weekend. 

 For any members using the WhatsApp Boyle Camera Club group chat do send a message if you have any concerns.
