In other news - Young Camera Club was excited to win second place in the annual Western Districts Association of Camera Clubs (WDACC).

It was a closely run race, though. They were just three points behind the winners, Narromine Camera Club.

Each year, one of the member clubs of WDACC hosts the event and this year’s host was Cudgegong Camera Club.

Other member clubs that competed in this year’s competition were Orange, Bathurst, Parkes and Narrandera.

Other member clubs include Harden, Murrumburrah, Dubbo, Mudgee, Goulburn, Grenfell and Hay.
