Photo opportunities

If you notice people in Kilcullen snapping your picture, it might well be that your image will end up in the Lions-sponsored photographic competition currently in progress.

The project is part of a scheme to record modern Kilcullen for future generations, and will run through to the end of September.

There are a number of competition and project categories, and the interest of young people in taking part will be part of a 'blitz' by the organisers when the schools reopen in September.

Organiser Angela Murray-Hayden has also appealed for photos from ten, 20 or more years ago to fill back reference volumes, as part of the effort to build a 'photographic, social, architectural and environmental history of Kilcullen'.
