6th April 2006 -
1st Birthday!
Wednesday evening 6th April 2005 saw the
launch of the Tommy Byrne Photographic Society in Arklow's Royal
Hotel. In our first year we have gone on from strength to strength.
From small beginnings in The Royal Hotel,
growing and moving to The Bridge Hotel (due to the closure of the Royal)
we've held many events throughout this year such as a Poker Classic,
Summer Ball, weekly/biweekly projects, Tutorial Classes & Exams
(x2), local and national competitions, local and national exhibitions,
website launch, not forgetting to mention the massive help and time
members have given to discussions, lectures, slideshows and Photoshop
sessions. Without our members and our hosts we wouldn't exist and
we would like to take this opportunity to thank them all very
sincerely.
The Society's committee for 2005
comprised of Robert Hudson
(President), Stewart Case (Chairperson), Larissa O'Duffy (Sec.
& P.R.O.)
and Julie
New (Treasurer).
Committee for 2006: Robert Hudson
