Some news and information from the GDPU Delegates meeting held on Monday 9th March 2009.
- The AGM will be held on Tuesday 14th April 2009 at 7.30pm in East Kilbride Arts Centre.
- Chairman made a plea to clubs to encourage members to consider joining thee GDPU committee. Over recent years the committee numbers have been dwindling and this is now starting to impact planned projects due to the increased demand on the current committee. If anyone is interested please make it known to ACC committee or delegates.
- Not enough clubs are entering images into the GDPU competitions, salons, portfolios. Clubs have been asked to try and make an effort in entering prints / images to the various events available to club members.
- GDPU Image League Final – will be held on Thursday 9th April 2009 at 7.30pm in East Kilbride Arts Centre. At this time the judge is unknown. Entry will cost £2.00 per person. The standard in the final is very high indeed.
- Member clubs have been asked to look at the new website and feedback any issues – particularly around their own club page. Clubs have also been asked to provide an image for the club page and to provide feedback or comments (good or bad) – with a view to allow the web site to be improved even more.
- GDPU Weekends
- Next weekend is planned for Uig Youth Hostel in Skye, however we are looking to move the event to Broadford as it is more central on Skye. The places are being taken up quickly so booking need to be made ASAP. The cost of this weekend will be £40.00. More information available as and when available.
- A longer trip has been planned for September to Islay. Further details can be found on the GDPU Web Site.
- Workshop Day
- Need applications ASAP.
- The day will be a hands on day so members are asked to bring cameras.
- A couple of the lectures will be “out and about” so please prepare for the weather also.

If members have any questions or comments, please feel free to discuss with either the ACC committee or have a chat with any of the GDPU Deligates. (Bendy Boab or Trigger)
