Why Join?

Now $35 a year for a single membership!

We meet the first Tuesday of the month (unless otherwise noted on the Calendar page) from September to June at the New Life Centre, 199 4th Avenue West, Owen Sound.

NEW STUDENT RATES! If you are a student at the secondary school level or younger, the membership fee is $10, but if you are taking any kind of photography course during the school year, your fee will be waived for the year.

As a member of the Owen Sound Camera Club you will have the privilege of being able to enter any of the Assignments and events that we may venture into. Over the course of our schedule, we have a different theme for each month where we will shoot something that pertains to that theme and submit two images to the club email account. At the next scheduled meeting the images are presented through a projector and the photographer will say a few words about each of their photos.

Whenever we can, we like to organize field trips where we get together in a workshop type of setting and learn from each other while doing what we like to do most – take pictures. As a paid member, you will be included in a phone or email list and be informed of such activities.

As a member of the OSCC you can have some of your work displayed on your own page in our Gallery section. Currently the limit for images per page is set at twelve, and if you have your own personal web site, we’ll be glad to put a link to it from our Links page.

During our meetings there may be issues that require a vote. Although we have a number of guests and visitors at our meetings, voting can only be done by our paid members. In May or June we may have a special gathering for the membership where we partake in a photographic activity, such as a scavenger hunt, then a barbecue.
