Club officers for 2022 are : Pay your dues for 2022 to Dave Chamness (3854 Braidwood Drive, Fort Collins, CO 80524) if you haven't already paid. Annual dues are $25/member with $15 for a spouse and $10 for each additional child under 18. You can now pay your dues ONLINE with PayPal!!! Collected dues are down, but our expenses are down even more so our club is doing well financially. We will continue to hold our club meetings on ZOOM until further notice due to the uncertainty of the COVID pandemic. When you hear about interesting upcoming events, please email Mike Barry (info@FCDCC.com) and give him details so they can be listed on the website.

We are trying to decide whether to hold a general meeting in December or a holiday party or both or neither. Please email Mike Dunetts and tell him your preference. Please email info@fcdcc.com if your SIG will be meeting soon so I can add the meeting to our website. Send your photograph submittals (corrected fix-it-photos, club outings, challenge topics, old and new, or your favorite images) (up to 8 images) to Jim Limburg at jlimburg1@gmail.com. Remember to send in before and after versions of your pictures so we can learn about post processing. Please send them by Sunday evening so Jim has time to create the slideshow. Please add captions to the pictures that you submit for the monthly slideshow, and clearly note which picture they pertain to, by stating the filename if possible.
