HOMESHOW 2008


Well, I have skipped a little to a couple weeks later..as it has been a busy time!
I had a great time in Ontario and will talk about the speakers in another blog..
but I came back to Prince George and started the final semster for the University
of Northern British Columbia in Photography.This section is the "Business of Photography"
and we have 13 people in the class.9 are returning students who have been studying since
Sept.There is some great up and coming talent in Prince George and area.To find out more
about the classes contact Kim at the Continuing Education Program so unbc.ca>Information About>Contining Education>Photography.Rumor has it there is a waitlist already for the
Sept.course already.Limited to a class of 12 only.If you are a student at the university it is
also a credit course!! So that began on April 23 and goes for 10 weeks.
Then the Prince George Homeshow came along a couple days later! I did say busy!
3 days of meeting old and new clients was also of fun as we were also raising money for the
Pediatric Wing at the hospital for the playroom they are trying to enclose for the children's
floor. We had a 60" framed canvas up for grabs..at $20 ticket with a percentage going to the
hospital.It is the landscape of the Boyne Valley in Ireland - full of the greens of Ireland!
The winner was drawn by Hanna my daughter at 5pm and she and I drove to their home a few minutes later and presented it to "Nick Veeken". He was the last person to enter the draw..and sure was surprised to win!We really did stir those tickets up and around so thanks to all of you who supported us and the hospital.All of you are winners.
