KCPA membership application in difficulty

Eastbourne Camera Club's application to join the Kent County Photographic Association (KCPA) is in difficulty because of a complaint. It is understood an unknown person(s) has objected to the KCPA that Eastbourne Camera Club can be confused with the name of Eastbourne Photographic Society.  As a result, Eastbourne Camera Club has been advised by the KCPA that  application for membership is unlikely to succeed unless an alternative club name is found without the word "Eastbourne" appearing in it.
  In a further development, many variations of Eastbourne Camera Club's domain name, such as .net, .org, .com etc., have been purchased by a single individual known to be a member of Eastbourne Photographic Society and registered in her name.  5/7/13

Pevensey Walk

We were blessed again with a gorgeous evening on the 1st July for our third summer walk, this time  around Pevensey.  Thanks to Brenda Woods for devising the route.  We discovered some hitherto unknown parts of Pevensey which were a delight, all topped off with some liquid refreshment in the pub.  Thanks to all who came, it was a lovely evening and a chance to meet new friends.  02/07/13

Something Fishy!

A few of the Club members met in Hastings to take pictures around the beach and fishing huts.  It's a fascinating area with much photographic scope.  We finished up with the obligatory fish and chips of course. 

Fourth Meeting

We held the fourth meeting of our exciting new Club on 17th June and this was also the first occasion at our superb new venue, St. John's Parish Hall in Meads.  We had lots of work on show and projected and there was a great atmosphere and energy in the room.  Thanks to all those who came and hope to see you all again.

Jevington - Folkington Walk

Despite the current challenging and rather unpredictable weather, members enjoyed a wonderful evening walk from Jevington to Folkington along the secret Green Lane.  It really was summer that evening.
