Name Tags
Please everyone, can you always wear your name tag. Most of us know who you are, but our newer members do not and this is the easiest way for all of us to learn who is who.
Don’t have a name tag? Sue looks after the name tags and she will gladly arrange a tag for you to be available at the following meeting.

Calibration
Calibrating your monitor is an essential part of ensuring that the image you see on your monitor at home closely resembles what the judges and members see up on the screen on a competition night. Correct calibration also helps to ensure that your printed image closely matches what you see on your monitor.
The club has a calibrator that we lend out to members to assist with this.
Please talk to Peter, Bill or myself if you wish to borrow the calibrator.
