Bring a camera and visit VW Camera Club

By Rex Dolby

The public is cordially invited to bring their photography equipment, owner’s manuals, and related questions to the Wassenberg Camera Club’s open meeting, Thursday, January 26, at 7 p.m. in the main gallery of the Wassenberg Art Center at 643 S. Washington St. in Van Wert.  Parking is available in the lot behind the art center and along the east side (northbound 127) of S. WashingtonSt. Access to the parking lot is by using the driveway on the right (north) side of the art center.

The meeting is intended to serve the community by providing those who have questions related to their camera equipment or photography in general, with the answers they seek at no charge.  Visitors will be matched with other visitors and membersusing the same or similar equipment in small groups.  If a visitor’s question cannot be resolved within the group for some reason, the solution will be sought on the Internet.  Between these two resources, satisfactory answers should be available to everyone.

Photographers of all ages are welcome to attend the meeting. Young people under the age of 13, however, must be accompanied by an adult.  Since some may have to walk across S. Washington St. and up the narrow driveway in the dark, it is essential that youngsters be escorted.

Some people might feel that they can’t participate because their owner’s manual is on the CD that came with their camera or is accessed on their computer when they right click on Help.  Come with your equipment and questions anyway.  There is a suggestion that will be provided at the meeting to overcome this inconvenience.

Remember, it’s free, there’s no obligation to join the club, though we’d love to have you and it’s all right here in Van Wert!
