I want to try to have a discussion about getting some activity going forward. We need some member participation if we going to make this work. We have 20 members signed up so far and I would like to add a few more to account for attrition etc. I have some opportunities for a location that have come up and would like to have some discussion about them as well as to try to get a mutual decision on organizing finances etc. The only way this will move forward is with group participation. If you really look hard at this if you are a commercial photographer the cost of your studio contribution would be covered in just one portrait sitting a month. I don't do portraits myself but I know that if I create just 1 great image a month I will more than make enough for my membership. Also the group will be able to learn from each other as we go along. I probably have some things to offer others and look forward to your ideas and techniques as well. With this we can get involved in community events and become involved with things like the Art Hop etc. I had an idea that for the Art hop perhaps we have a different theme for each month and each member would display an image for that theme. Perhaps themes such as portraits, pets, wild animals, cars, etc. but a different theme each month. These are the things that we need to discuss. I also want to get some volunteers from members to help with th organization of this group. We need a treasurer and someone to keep notes at Meetups as well as to help pick out the location etc.
