Airport Exhibit
Dr. Daniel Harris led a discussion on the possible update of the photography exhibit at the Hancock International Airport. A suggestion was made by Dr. Harris that perhaps our competition topic of Syracuse could be changed to Central New York so that this competition could generate more photos for possible entry in the airport exhibit.
At the previous meeting there was a motion to please have anyone who has suggestions regarding the Syracuse topic (there is a question as to exactly what the criteria should be for the Syracuse topic) please contact Marie Ryan () and/or Annette Riposo ()of the Image Committee.
