Week of 24 November to 01 December 2020

Dear Members,

Below is a summary of the Club's latest news items.

  • Online Photo Competition 2020

    Allnations Bushwalkers online favourite destination photographic competition.

    One of the drivers of the competition is to inspire members to get out and see the great outdoors in Australia and New Zealand, the following rules are included.

    Rules

    You must have visited the destination within the last three years.
    The destination must ideally involve some bushwalking (we are a bushwalking club after all).  But bike rides, kayak or swims are  just as acceptable. Your journey does not need to be an epic 10 -day hike. Nor does it have to be a club walk.
    Each All Nation member is allowed one on-line vote per category.
    Winners will be determined by the number of votes.

    Categories

    My favourite bushwalking destination - Australia and New Zealand
    People Scenes
    Flora and Fauna

    Submissions

    1. Photo entries are open from today and close 18:00 on 26 November. Voting will close at 23:59 on 3 December – we will announce the winners at the Christmas party on Saturday 5 December.

    2. Image size up to 1920 x 1200 pixels, and a maximum file size of 2MB.
     
    3. Include an identifying Photo name and one sentence of interesting information you may wish to include.

    4. Photos should be emailed to club@anbwalkers.org.au by 18:00 on 26 November. They will then be loaded to the club website and all members circulated a link to the competition album with further instructions on voting which will be via email to club@anbwalkers.org.au by 23:59 on 3 December.
