December Club Meeting and Holiday Party

The Gainesville Photography Club meets every third Monday of the month at 7:00 pm at: LifeSouth Community Blood Center 1221 Northwest 13th Street, Gainesville, FL 32601-4111.  Our meeting room is on the north side of the building, second floor. Take the exterior staircase to the second floor meeting room.  A map to our meeting location is displayed under the "Meetings" tab.

Our December photo club meeting  is also our annual holiday party.  We will meet at our usual location at 6 pm for a pot luck dinner and conduct our meeting at 7.  The theme for December is a slideshow.  Your slideshow can be on anything you want as long as it is no longer than about 10 minutes.  Some people, for example, show their best pictures of the year, others a slideshow of a recent trip.  There are several good and relative easy to use programs available for making slideshows set to music.  Windows Movie Maker, Windows Picture Story, and FastStone Image Viewer come to mind.  FastStone is by far the easiest to use but does not have as many features as the others.

For dinner, the club will furnish a cold cut platter, condiments, sandwich bread, and soft drinks. You may bring a small side dish for about 8 people. If you wish, you may also bring an alcoholic beverage.  Significant others are also welcome as there should be plenty of food to go around.
