We met in our regular room at Ridgeview Classical School

We had several visitors at the meeting tonight, Bree, Mickey, and Danielle please welcome them to our club.

Please pay your dues for 2013 to Harry Strharsky if you haven't already paid. You can find him at most meetings. Annual dues are $25/member with $15 for each additional spouse and $10 for each additional child under 18.

Check out what the SIGs (Special Interest Groups), they have been holding lots of meetings and going on lots of outings. Participating in a SIG is an excellent way to develop your skills.

Continue sending photograph submittals for the meetings to Bob Babbs at bobbabbs@aol.com. We are looking for a new volunteer to handle the photograph submittals. If you are interested please contact Bob. Remember to send in before and after versions of your pictures so we can learn about post processing.

We need to elect a "President Elect" for the club. The President Elect for this year will become the club President next year, and they are expected to cover the President's responsibilities if the President is not able to attend a meeting or outing. If you would like to be the President Elect, or would like to recommend someone for the position, just send an email to info@fcdcc.com.

The March outing is the Portrait/Model shoot at the Old Goodwill Building this Saturday, 3/16 from 8am to 5pm. Check out the website for details. We expect 20-30 models and 20-30 photographers. The shoot is open to all members of FCDCC and it is a great way to learn about portrait photography.
