Hey gang, Brad Moore here with the latest goings-on!
Jeremy Cowart on The Grid
On Thursday, November 17, we will be airing a special edition of The Grid featuring Jeremy Cowart. Jeremy will join Scott on the show to talk about Help-Portrait, the movement that began a few years ago which gives photographers the opportunity to give back to their community. This year’s event will take place December 10, and you can find all the info on how to be part of it over at Help-Portrait.com!

Help Portrait the last 2 years is one of the most emotional things I’ve ever done. This year our newly formed Photo Guild, http://www.spartanburgphotoguild.org will be involved and expect to take on a larger venue. Anyone thinking about this should just do it! I’m telling you the felling you get from the help you give is unforgettable.
I agree Ken – it is definitely emotional, but a “must do” thing. If anyone reading this hasn’t signed up, they should do so. You won’t regret it.
Great Pimpy, Brad! But how is Ben driving the bus to Hawaii and Iceland? Did he retrofit pontoons to the sides? 8)
