Regular 2x2 Photo Meets
We'll now be having a scheduled Sydney photo meet on the second Saturday of every second month (the even numbered ones) with the first being on Saturday 11 October. These 2x2 photo meets will happen unless the weather is truly terrible (cyclone warning or tsunami for example
).We've drawn up a list of future things to do and places to go (see below) and these will be progressively added to the calendar of 2x2 events. We'll also be having our Sydney Christmas get together as a 2x2 photo meet and picnic instead of a dinner this year so you can bring your family. Care to guess what date? Yep the second Saturday in December which is 13th. So pencil that in your diaries as well. All are welcome at these events.
The first 2009 2x2 Photo meet will be on Saturday 7 February 2009, followed by one on Saturday 11 April 2009
Planned 2x2 meet locations: North Head Quarantine station, Symbio WiIdlife Park and Sea Cliff bridge, Chowder Bay, Manly to Spit walk, Sydney Harbour Circle walks (several still to do), Blue Mountains, etc
(self included).
