AUGUST MEETING NOTES

To all DPI-SIG members and other interested parties:

A sincere welcome to our two new members! Gordon Campbell and Carmen Schettino.

Our monthly theme slide show producer, Jeff Bilyeau, did his production of our theme photos based on “PRIMARY COLORS: R E D, B L U E & Y E L L O W”. As always, Jeff found the appropriate “colorful music” for this theme. And, we have a new record for photo submissions – 25 members submitted 145 pictures! We put Jeff through the paces this month, but he doesn’t let anything deter him from doing a great job! Even if you aren’t in Naples, your photos will be shown at the meeting and will eventually appear on the web-site’s page of slideshows. Don’t forget to rename and resize your monthly theme photos! http://www.dpi-sig.org.
