Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

Friday October, 9th the SF Photo Club had their very first meeting of the 2010-11 school year. The meeting went on with the usual get-to-know-you set up but finished off the meeting with tarp surfing. “Tarp surfing is like making the illusion of surfing, without the surfboard or water”, said an enthralled Mr. Isley. “The students loved it, and we got a lot of great pictures from it.” The students who attended said it was really fun once you got the hang of it, and it looks like a great way to start the year.
