Camera Club bestows awards at banquet

FALLBROOK — On May 16, the Fallbrook Camera Club held its banquet and awards ceremony at San Luis Rey Downs Country Club. The competition prints done by the members were on display for members and guests to view. Each table was decorated with an exquisite floral centerpiece created by member Christel Lakata.

Lin Craft, club president and master of ceremonies, thanked all the competition judges and the program presenters who contributed to an interesting and educational year. She thanked Silvergate Retirement Residence for the use of their facilities for the club meetings and then introduced all the past and present officers and thanked them for their work.

Mel Forman had gathered an amazing array of door prizes for the event from local and San Diego area photography-related businesses.

Craft was presented with a Certificate of Appreciation in honor of her enthusiasm, accomplishments and leadership.
