OPCC Survey Deadline Tuesday January 19

We need your input! Please complete your survey (emailed January 13) if you haven’t already responded. We appreciate your feedback - thanks to all who have responded so far.

From OPCC President Peg Hanson

Members,

Thank you all for the great turnout for our first meeting of the year! 2021 may have its issues, but the Board and our Chairs all hope to capitalize on them and make this year our most rewarding ever!

And on that note, I hope you all were able to answer the survey we recently emailed. Our agenda for the year hinges on your input! And please visit the new website at www.olympicpeakscameraclub.com. Most importantly, make yourselves familiar with the Calendar, as well as the new bylaws, hosted in the Members Only section of the website. We will all be voting on them soon and you don’t want to be blindsided by any changes we made!

As a reminder, please make sure you attend Darrel Gulin’s presentation Jan. 21st. Information is on the website as well as below....

OPCC President, Peg Hanson
