2019-09-10 FCDCC Meeting Notes We met in the Eagle 1 room at the Aztlan Center, 112 E Willow Street, Fort Collins, CO 80524 Please welcome Marcus and Autumn who were visiting our club. We need a President Elect for the remainder of this year and to become president for next year. We may delegate some of the President's responsibilities to volunteers to reduce the amount of work required from the president. Please contact Monique Renee if you are interested in becoming FCDCC President for 2020. Please pay your dues for 2019 to Dave Chamness at the next meeting if you haven't already paid. You can find him at most meetings. Annual dues are $25/member with $15 for a spouse and $10 for each additional child under 18. Dues are prorated based on the month you join. The Post Processing SIG has been doing some mentoring. Contact one of the leaders if you would like help with post processing. Check out 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.
