Refocus That Please - by Mike Griffith

 

NEW MEETING PLACE FOR NOVEMBER: Briarcliff Baptist Church.  Get off  at Clairmont road from I-85 (like you did going to the old location), but at that main intersection (Briarcliff Road) turn right (west).  You'll go past an Ed's Grocery Store and a park-like area.  Drive past the Baptist Church and take the 1st driveway.  Park close to the entrance that says "Office".  Inside, look for the "PAL" Sunday school room.  The Church is happy to have us (according to Marilyn who took the time to set this up for us) and if we like the location, we'll probably continue to meet here.  See you around 7:30 on Friday, November 8th (2nd Friday).

 

Last month's meeting (at Larry's Lodge) had some great vintage & current images projected. There was a quick preview to see how the old Charleston stereoviews will look for the project Larry and I are doing for the Convention. Hopefully, we'll have these done in time to present the finished program to you all.  We also had the "Atlanta Cotton States" program from 1895 that was presented at the Atlanta Convention in 1995. It was great to see this superb show again.  (I can rave about it since Larry did all the work...).  Larry also presented his program "Terra Incognita" that was compiled of some magnificent scenes from places that Larry has visited over the years. This is well worth seeing again sometime soon.

 

This month we have COMPETITION NIGHT!  So dust off your views and come prepared to show them off.  Surely you took some over the summer...  Larry will also bring the Viewmaster projector, so if you have some interesting reels that you would like to see how they look on the large screen, bring them along.

 

Marilyn Morton has refreshments for this month.  See ya'll on Friday, November 8th at the Briarcliff Baptist Church.

 

 

We need more slides for the inter-club competitions, so bring some good slides.  We need to send some winners to improve on last year’s result!
