Next Monday Night  – Competition Judging

Next Monday the judging of our ‘Reflections’ competition by Eamonn and Christine from Skerries Photography will take place. This is a Zoom Only event. As we have had a very significant number of entries, the event will commence early at 7.30 pm to allow sufficient time for the judges to provide feedback to all entrants.

 

So, in summary: Zoom Only starting at 7.30 pm on Monday 21st November.

 

 

 

Offshoot AGM Scheduled for 28 November

 

As has already been advised, our Annual General Meeting will be held on Monday 28th November 2022 at St Bridget’s National School Cabinteely at 8 pm. This is your chance to hear about the progress of Offshoot over the past 12 months and to input any ideas you may have for the future. The AGM will also elect four key members of the committee for 2023.

Any Resolutions for discussion at the AGM should be forwarded in writing to the Secretary (secretary@offshoot.ie?subject=AGM Resolution) by 21st November 2022. 

 

Exhibition Photobook

 

The Photobook including most of the images displayed at our Club Exhibition at DLR Lexicon during the summer has now been sent for printing.

 

Pricing and availability will be advised shortly.

 

IPF National Shield Panels Selected

A huge thanks to all our members that submitted images for the IPF National Shield competition. A group of our members (at IPF level A or above) have now selected the colour and mono panels shown below.  We wish everyone the best of luck at this year’s final which will be held at the Horse & Jockey Hotel, Thurles, Co. Tipperary, on Saturday 26th November at a time yet to be advised.

Offshoot Christmas Party Returns

 

After several years of a gap, our Christmas get-together returns on 19th December at the Horse & Hound in Cabinteely. So put the date in your calendar now!
