PVCC Newsflash

Art Fair volunteers needed!

We need members to sign up for the Photo Venture Camera Club booth at the Broad Ripple Art Fair this Saturday and Sunday (May 19-20).  We need people to commit to two hour stretches starting at 8:00 AM Saturday until closing at 6:00 PM and also on Sunday morning.  You can bring images to hang in the booth.  Images need to be matted and not framed.  We have Velcro strips we can attach to the back of the image so they will hang well.  The Velcro comes off pretty easily when the images are taken down.

Sign up at this Thursday's meeting (note: at Trinity Church) or by replying to secretary@photoventure.org to sign up or request more information. PVCC NEEDS YOU!

Next Field Trip

IMPORTANT: This field trip has been postponed to May 5

WHERE:  Shades State Park
Shades is located adjacent to Sugar Creek. It is a heavy forested park with multiple deep ravines, steep cliffs, several small waterfalls and a thriving ecology.

FEE: There is a $5 per car fee to enter the park

TIME: Meet at 3:00 PM.  We are trying a mid afternnon meeting time to capture the evening light instead of having to leave early in the morning to capture the sunrise.  We will plan on meeting at the Cracker Barrel located at InterState 465 Exit 17, west 38th Street at 3:00 PM.  We can arrange car pooling or drive separate.  If you do not car pool we plan to meet at shelter B just inside the park.  We should arrive at the park between 4:00 and 4:30.  Map directions to the Cracker barrel are HERE. Map and directions to Shades State Park are HERE.

Additional Information: You might want to pack a light lunch and drink to eat in the park. We will discuss the possibility of going to Pine Hills Nature Preserve in addition to or as an alternative to Shades, since they are adjacent.

HOSTS: Your hosts and guides for this program will be Jeff Engle and Mike La Masters - Feel free to call 317-417-6954 if you have questions regarding the trip.
