I want to thank all those members, and plus 1’s, who came out to Philippe Park on Sunday to join in the food, fellowship, and fun for our 2023 Annual Awards and Holiday Party!

As usual, the food was amazing and yummy! We had tastes from all over the world!

We had a great turnout for our “Clothes Pin” exhibit and the stories were educational, inspirational, and funny!

I think everyone present won a raffle prize! Thank you Jim McWilliam for adding to what the club purchased!

Thank you to the Board of Directors, plus Lorrie Maniscalco, Susan Huckabay, and Lourdes Fusco, for putting the party all together and cleaning up in record time!

Thank you to those who donated and who purchased the items for the Silent Auction.

The Annual Awards

We had 18 members qualify per the eligibility rules listed on our website. https://mytbcc.com/about/competition-rules/

Congratulations go to:

1st Place – Liwen Tao, 2nd Place – Sylvia Fernandez, 3rd Place – Lee Brand, 4th Place – Kathy Thompson, 5th Place – Lourdes Fusco, 6th Place – Karen Robinson

Special thanks were given to me (thank you) and to our two Pros, Robert Rostick and Jim Sykes.

Jim Sykes brought his herd of cameras and was taking video and stills most of the afternoon so here is the highlight video, if you missed coming or want to relive the day!

We missed all of our out-of-state members and others who could not make it, so I hope this video allows you to a least witness the fun and fellowship that this club is known for!

We will see you at our next Zoom meeting on January 18, for our first 2024 Exhibition/Comment Night (The assignment is Macro Photography (Redemption Assignment) – A creative image of anything at a 1:1 ratio or closer, no cropping).

Happy Holidays to All! 🎄
