The Wassenberg Camera Club held an open meeting Thursday, February 28, at the Wassenberg Art Center to answer questions guests might have about photography or their equipment. With a ratio of almost two members to each guest, a number of issues were resolved.<\/p>\n

In other news, Will Hawkins brought in eight more cameras, which were gifts from the William Soldner family. Included in the collection were: a Pentax IQZoom 920 which was built in the 1980’s, a Fuji A 310 digital made made from 2003, a Vivitar 600 built in the 1970’s, and an Ansco No. 1, a folding camera which dates from 1915-26.<\/p>\n

Also included were four Kodak cameras. A Pocket Instamatic 20 sold in 1972 as well as a Pocket Instamatic 40, Instamatic 800 built in 1964 and an Instamatic 104 made in 1965 The club is very appreciative of the Soldner’s gifts and will add them to the collection to be exhibited when the art center moves to its new location.<\/p>\n

The club will meet next at 7 p.m. on Thursday, March 8, at the Wassenberg Art Center. The Color Green will be the competition theme in prints and slides that evening.<\/p>\n

Members are asked to bring their fair suggestions to the meeting as well as their competition entries.\u00a0Dave Evans of the Fair Board writes,\u00a0“I am in the process of updating the fair book for the 2013 fair. I need your suggested categories as soon as you can get them to me. Last year you gave me 8 to chose from. I picked five from those suggestions for our exhibit. I appreciate your help each year in making this a beautiful exhibit. Thanks,\u00a0Dave Evans.”<\/p>\n
