4-6pm in Room B1-11

Attending: Jeanette Walz, Fred Rosso, Charlene Brown, Andrey Kolyada, Bill Mcdowell, Shawn Melvin, Ben Tran, Ngoc Tran, Alfred Walker, Sharon Highsmith, Jennifer Midberry

- Members met at 3:30pm and took photos around campus together until 4:30pm.

- At the meeting following that, Andrey and Ben told the group about the Halloween Party planning meeting. The planning committee needs to know as soon as possible what we will be doing at the party. The group needs to decide whether to float around and randomly take shots and put them on a display screen or to set up an area/booth where guests can be photographed.

- Next week, we will bring the club's equipment and we will go over what it is all used for and where it is stored.

- Members will be meeting for First Friday. We will meet on 2nd Street next to the dog park at 3pm on Friday, October 7. We will walk around from 3-5pm then if we want we can tour the galleries afterward.

- On Monday we will also be doing our brown bag event, where we place a item in a brown bag, we exchange items and then we photograph our new item and bring the pics in the next week. And to all who went out on the photo walk they can also bring in pictures to share with the club.

- As we closed out a few of the members shared some of there weekly pictures and since so many missed the photo walk, we will set up another one.

- There was a recap on who was attending the general meeting it was decided that Fred and Charlene would attend. It was also mentioned that we should reach out to some of the other clubs and connect with them to see how we can help each other.

- The trip to the Inquirer and Daily News has been reserved exclusively for the CCP Photojournalism. If Photo Club members are interested, they are encouraged to take that class next year.

Attending: Walter Johnson, Jeannette Walz, Alfred Walker, Ben Tran, Bill McDowell, Fred Rosso, Vincent Ancona, Andrey Kolyada, Tyrone Marquez, Charlene Brown, Ngoe Tran, Eleonora Antsis, Michael Joniec and Jennifer Midberry

- First order of business was determining new officers, voted on by a show of hands. The new officers are:
President: Fred Rosso
Vice President: Jeanette Waltz
Secretary: Charlene Brown (alternate: Andrey Kolyada)
Treasurer: Ben Tran
- Second matter of business was suggestions for participating in the CCP Creative Arts Halloween party. Ideas were to take photos of attendees as they mingle at the party or to set up an area for students to come and get their photos taken. There were also suggestions about showing the iages on a display during the event or posting them on the photo blog to draw attention to the blog.
- Next, many of the members gave suggestions about speakers to either attend the club meeting or the club can go to them. Members were most interested in hearing from a fashion photographer, fine art photographer, art director, photojournalist, wedding photographer, sports photographer, advertising photographer

- Later other suggestions for club activities were presented:
- All members should get familiar with the clubs' equipment, to know how to use it and where it is stored.
- First Friday trips in Old City.
- Perhaps having weekly contest for best photo.
- Action items for the club:
- Determine what to do and what has been done with past funds (get proposal forms from room 112).
- Have a representative attend the general assembly meeting.

Meeting 9/12/11
4-6pm in Room B1-11

Attending: Walter Johnson, Jeannette Walz, Alfred Walker, Shawn Melvin, Ben Tran, Bill McDowell, Fred Rosso, Paul Grugan, Vinca Ancona, Adrienne Diehl, Andrey Kolyada, Michael Joniec and Jennifer Midberry

- Former faculty advisor Michael Joniec introduced new advisor Jennifer Midberry and welcomed returning and new members. Everyone introduced themselves and talked about their specific photographic interests.

- The meeting then consisted of discussing numerous housekeeping issues and brainstorming ideas for how to use the club meetings and resources for the upcoming year. A list of the issues raised follows:

- An election needs to me held for new officers for this year. It was decided that nominations and voting will take place during the next meeting. Positions of President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer must be filled. Additionally, the club needs to vote to approve Jennifer Midberry as faculty advisor.

- Members talked about how they wanted to use the club's Blogspot web page going forward. Do we want to continue to use it as a place to post in-house business or transform it into something more promotional to generate interest in the club? No final decision was made.

- There was also talk about starting and using a Facebook page for the club to have an online forum and a place to further discuss in-house club business.

- The issue was raised of whether to put forth effort to publicize the club beyond the photo department to reach out to potential members around campus. Suggestions included placing posters in new locations around campus, updating and promoting our Blogspot presence and reaching out to other student clubs.

- A discussion about how to maintain the e-mail list took place, with members debating whether to trim down the list or to offer those on the list the option to opt out. It was decided that there would be language added to future messages sent on the list informing people how to be removed from the list.

- The question of what equipment the club currently has was raised, and it was decided that members should take inventory. Additionally, we briefly discussed the fact that we have a new budget and should think about how to use it. Also, the club decided last year to start a scholarship fund, but the club needs to follow up with that this year and decide how to administer it. It was decided that former president Earl Weeks should be consulted about where the club stands in regard to both of these issues.

- There was a great deal of discussion about what activities members would like to have the club pursue this year. Suggestions included: Annual gallery show, photograph other clubs' events, photo safaris, guest speakers, weekly photo contest, critiques of ongoing work, coordinating with the school newspaper, reach out to other college photo clubs, visit photographers/go to galleries. We decided to work towards setting an agenda during the next meeting.

Here's the write up response from the General Meade Society...........
"
MEMBERS & FRIENDS OF THE MEADE SOCIETY:

Re: General George Meade's Birthday Service and Champagne Toast at Laurel Hill Cemetery

It was a great event that generated a record turn-out of participants and perhaps the best weather we have had in quite awhile. The music, the colors, the pageantry and of course, the food were all spectacular!

Dr. Andy Waskie, directed an organized & dignified procession despite the swelling numbers of attendees. It was a fitting tribute to General Meade, his gallant soldiers and this year - his dear mother.

Job well done by everyone involved - THANK YOU!

Photos from yesterday's service are available for viewing on the GMS Flickr account -

***Anyone willing to share their photos from the Birthday service can email them to :
GeneralMeadeSociety@gmail.com - and we will gladly post them onto our Flickr account.

Thanks,
Ed Zongolowicz
