New Domain Name for EPC Website

The website has finally been transferred to a new hosting server, and we now have a new domain name, so the website is accessable at either http://e-p-c.org.au or www.e-p-c.org.au. Over the next few weeks I'll be notifying sites and search engines of our change of address. Our old address doesn't work any more as I've cancelled the account.

Club Outing Sunday June 3

The Club outing this Sunday will be at Old Tailem Town, Princes Highway, near Tailem Bend. Meet at Old Tailem Town at 11 am. Admission is $15 per person, which is the group discount price. Bring your own lunch as they only have cold drinks, tea & coffee at the venue, no food.

Old Tailem Town is a pioneer village with lots of old buildings (cottages, shops, a cinema, church, school) cars, trucks, trains etc. They provide ample opportunity for photography, especially Black and White.

Tailem Bend usually has less rain than the Adelaide plains, so hopefully it won't be too wet for photography.
