There are 62 openings left at this writing for February 28 to March 3, 2007, open for anyone to sign up to get them filled. We encouraged the 3 to 6 month residents to get their sittings early because some leave early. The next week of photography will be April 3 to 7, 2007, however those dates are not open at time of this printing. This will be the last photo / phone directory for a few years, though we will always have a phone directory available.

The photo / phone directory is sponsored by The Tanglewood community Church due to the fact the companies will not do photos unless they are church sponsored. But everyone is welcome and encouraged to participate. You will receive a free 8X10 photo plus a phone directory for your sitting.
