Remember to enter the following salons Worcester 5/7/2019 and Pretoria 20/7/2019. 

The arangements for the PSSA congress are well on the way and a number of photographers have registered.                                           I would like to ask for as many members as possible to plan to attend. Some good speakers have been arranged                                      and there will also be a number of workshops so delegates will be able to take some top photos there.                                        Registration forms and information are available on the PSSA website We will also require sponsers to help cover                                      the cost so if anybody knows of possible sponsers please let me know.

Membership fees are due so please deposit your fees into the bank account with your name as reference.                                               Send your proof of payment to Tom. Remember the fees have been increased by R50.00.

Regards
