MARCH 13, 2016 – SUNSET FIELD TRIP TO EVERGREEN LAKE – 5pm

by ecc

Enjoy the later sunset on the first day of daylight savings time. We are going to meet near the lake house at 5pm and photograph birds, elk, people, and sunsets. Whatever you would like. It will be a great opportunity to get to know the club members. We’ll all go out to dinner afterwards. If you are new and show up later we shouldn’t be too hard to spot since we’ll be the ones with the cameras! The local newspaper, the Canyon Courier, will be there too doing a feature story on us. For further information contact ericesau@gmail.com
