Who: All PNWNP members and their guests. (Members are welcome to bring spouses,invite non-member friends, etc.)

When: December 10, 2011 from noon to threeish.

Where: Thanks to Dennis's suggestion, we have a reservation at the Ramblin Jacks Rib Eye just south of Chehalis and right off I-5.

What: Holiday Print Exchange. (This is a twist on what the RMNP does.)

Here's the plan. We're are asking that all attendees bring a print of a favorite photograph they have taken, something around 8x10 to 11x14 in size, wrapped in wrapping paper (or similar). As you arrive, we'll put a number on the print. After sharing lunch together we'll all draw numbers from a hat (draw again if you draw your own print's number), and then we'll go around the circle and open them one by one. If the photographer desires, he/she can tell us a bit about the print. The idea is that we'll all head home with a different print then we brought, and we'll be able to enjoy and learn from everyone's work.

If you are bringing a spouse or a friend who doesn't have a print, you are welcome to bring an extra for them so they can join in the exchange. I'll try and bring a couple extra in case some decide to join us at the last minute.

In addition to the exchange, you are welcome to bring other prints you may have to just show and tell.

If you don't want to participate in the print exchange, or have nothing to bring, you are still welcome to join us for the food and fellowship.

We've got more events coming but it will take us into next year. Don't forget that if anyone wants an informal Get Together or a shooting buddy (buddies) sooner, just post a thread with the info.
