VICE PRESIDENT’S AWARD 2009

This award is given every year to an individual member in recognition of outstanding service to the Society. For 2009 the winner is John Brown for his outstanding work in the development of this website. Vice President, Tony Griffiths, praised the transformation of the website achieved by John, and its functionality . He highlighted, particularly, the value to the membership of the Blog section with its news and stop press information, along with competition winning pictures promptly posted, and the thriving Portfolio section. The latter has 5 portfolio groups of members, with two easily operated models, and some 800 pictures posted and commented upon. The website is constantly evolving and we have reason to be grateful to John for his skills and commitment.
