President Trish Place conducted the meeting.  There were 27 people present.

Several people visited the Lincoln Camera Club and did get a number of people to sign up for committee positions for the N4C Conference.

A website called Lynda is being researched for a possible club membership because it provides photography courses and tutorials.

An organization to help people stay in homes by updating and redecorating is “Rebuilding Together.”  They need persons to take photos before and after the work is finished,  April 26th.  More information to follow.

The international horse jumping show with 200 horses is April 11 and 12th.

The Bluffs Arts Council is sponsoring marketing workshops for artists.  There are 3 weekends:  March 28-29, April 11-12, and May 9-10.

Hotshops update:  There will be a 4x6 ft. space per person and we need to hang everything and supply all hanging materials.  Each photo needs a name, contact info and a price.  People must have all information about the photo WITH each photo.  Participants must have a bio sheet for visitors to read.  Cards and flyers are a good idea.

Treasurer’s report:  We have $2103.41.

The committee to search for a new meeting place reported that 2 churches and the Boystown Hospital all said “no” because we are not a service organization.  The College of St. Mary wants $75 per meeting and the National Guard did not reply to our inquiry.
