We offer opportunities to learn different techniques. We also have demonstrations and presentations from different areas of the photographic world. We have outings and field trips that offer new perspectives to the world around us.

We have 6 club competitions each year. Our club competitions are designed for member participation and the public is invited to attend. We also participate in an interclub competition each each year. We are a proud member of PSA and have provide several opportunities to submit to these competitions.
