Sat27Aug202210:00Town Square Hitchin
Every year we run a promotional event to tell people about Hitchin Camera Club and to encourage some new members.
We’re expecting to have our usual stall in the town square, where we’ll tell people about the club, let then see examples of our work, and give you the chance to chat to like minded people. We’re always looking for members (especially our newer members) to come down and promote the club, but we welcome anyone who simply wants to drop by and say “hello”

Following on from the promotional event in the town square we encourage all of our existing members, and any potential new members come along to this event to do some photography and have a catch-up. This year we’ll be doing a photo-walk around Letchworth meeting at the fountains on the Broadway Gardens at 7:00pm.
As always I'm sure we'll be sloping off for a beer after.
If you've got a friend that's interested in photography and maybe wants to join a camera club why not invite them to join us!

This evening is a great introduction to the club and we'd invite anyone with an interest in photography to come along and find out about us and what we do.
Returning members will be keen to note that we'll be announcing the subjects for the Assignment night planned for the 20th October.
