Ione – Foto Fun Club –Each of us think of gathering information for use next year – Reference: Meetings, topics and field trips or other items we may want to cover.

Anne – Each of us should go into Graig’s List this week to see how it works.
Frank – Reference: Projector – A man from the camera store was in last week – He adjusted the projector – Making the display less dark. The colors are still bad. Frank will see if the Far Horizon Owner will foot the bill or half of it.
Ione - Mentioned Joining the Foto and Computer Clubs together because of many duplications, or possibly not including photo information in the Computer Club Itinerary.
Anne – DVD R/W discs are touchy when trying to burn and play – Example: Movie or Video. They’re ok to work with photos. A DVD can hold up to 2000 pictures.
When copying to discs, use R/W DVD, not read only. Using read only discs - You can’t add information to them.
