Leonard: Celebrations, contests, highlight the summer
The ENHC is particularly indebted to Sen. Edward M. Kennedy for his participation and the many years of support and commitment to this initiative that has benefited so many in this region. We look forward to continuing our relationships with the hundreds of organizations we have developed partnerships with in the last decade to insure the continuing success of the ENHC and the advancement of our mission into the future.
Photo opportunities
The Essex National Heritage Commission, with the sponsorship of Hunt's Photo and Video of Melrose embarked on two projects for the amateur photographers - a series of Photo Safaris. Participants will have the opportunity to test the newest digital photography and optic equipment from Canon, Nikon and Olympus using for background the area's best natural, cultural and historic landscapes. Each of the events feature demonstrations, lectures and tips from some of the best professional photographers and camera manufacturers in the world. Participants will also be able to save their images from the day's activities on complimentary memory sticks provided by Delkin and each participant will receive a $50 gift certificate from Hunt's.
The final Photo Safari of the series is scheduled at the Salem Maritime National Historic Site on July 8 sponsored by Cannon. There will be two safaris's that day, at 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. There is a registration fee for this event and sign ups can be accepted on the Essex Heritage Web site at www.essexheriatge.org.
On the night of July 7, prior to the final safari, Canon and Hunt's Photo and Video will present a special outdoor and digital photography seminar at the National Park Service's Regional Visitor Center in Salem from 7 to 9 p.m. The seminar will feature Cannon Representative Rick Sammon, one of the top authorities on digital photography.
