Club Exhibition at Symphony Orchestra Concert
Daniel Pelissier organized an impressive public viewing of club member photos which had been winners during the winter competition. This exhibition took place during the intermission of a performance of the Red Deer Symphony Orchestra which was held at the Red Deer College. The concert was sold out which means that fully 580 people had the opportunity to view these photos and many of them did. There were quite a few questions about our club which Daniel was present to answer, and many people picked up the club’s brochure which has our contact information and may lead to patrons following up with us in future. From Daniel’s description of the event it was hard to tell which he enjoyed more: the high level of interest shown by concert patrons in our club or he himself having the opportunity to hear Chopin’s 2nd piano concerto played live! Please see the attached photos which illustrate the interest shown in our club images.

Passing of Edna Buck
Former CAPS member Edna Buck passed away on December 29, 2014 at the age of 72 years. She was a long-time participant in our club, who always loved to show off the latest photos she had taken. Many of those photos won awards, including those of cows! Her photography was enriched by her journeys to such exotic locations as Hawaii, and the Philippines. Closer to home she travelled widely in her motor home with her husband throughout Alberta, Saskatchewan and Ontario. Her daughter-in-law Sandra Buck was also a club member for many years.
