EATING TOGETHER Part of the WCPHA’s benefits are the social interaction. Several members meet before each meeting at the restaurant adjacent to our meeting room for dinner. Show up any time from 6 pm to 6:30pm and join the member’s table(s) — you can’t miss us as there will be cameras on the table or camera bags on the floor. The Alpen Club offers classic German cooking  — schnitzels, bratwurst, sauerkraut, et.al. There are three specials every day where two courses cost around $10, a drink (draft beer $4-5), tax and tip will give you change from $20. There are only a limited number of specials and when these are gone you have to eat from the regular menu, which adds around $10 to the cost.

 

Even if you are there earlier we prefer that members do not start the buy and sell session before the scheduled 7:30 pm so that everyone gets a near-equal chance at the sale items.

 

WEEKLY BREAKFAST MEETING There is an informal Friday Morning get-together at Cafe Zen, 1631 Yew Street, Vancouver where shooters and camera-lovers meet for breakfast between 9-11 am.  Everybody is welcome! If you want more information please e-mail Tom Abrahamsson

 

OUTING A group lunch is usually planned as part of the vintage camera outing each summer.

 

CHRISTMAS DINNER The December meeting is our Christmas Dinner. The Alpen Club decorates our room as a private dining room and members pre-select from three menu items at normal menu prices. The typical total cost is $30. There is no buy and sell or regular meeting at this event.

 

NEW YEAR’S DINNER The January meeting is our New Year’s dinner and is less formal, eating from the menu at a long table in the restaurant followed by an informal meeting with Buy and Sell and Show and Tell but no presentation.  MEMBERSHIP
