The 2000 Chapters Showcase will premier at the Albuquerque Annual PSA Conference, hosted by the Central Florida Chapter - Nick Muscovac, Chapter and Showcase Chairman. This Annual Chapters' function, (introduced at the 1983 San Francisco Conference by the then Connecticut Chapter) not only has become a regular feature at each Annual Conference, but is also a continuing travel slide set shared with Clubs, Councils or Chapters. Each set consists of some of the most interesting and outstanding images. Plan to join us at the 2000 Chapters Showcase and consider an early start to reserve one or more of these sets for next season, through John A. Yurchak, Showcase Distributor, 558 Ironton Ct., Aurora CO 80010, (303) 364-1653. Sets are available from 1992 through 1999 and the 2000 set will be available after the Albuquerque Conference. Other Chapter functions at the Conference will be: the Outstanding Photographs From Young Photographers, Toronto Revisited presentation and the Chapters Breakfast. See program in the June Journal for day and time.
