KSCCC Facebook Page

When the KSCCC meets in person, we invite members to show images that
they would like to have reviewed.  While the Kanata Seniors’ Centre was
shut down during the COVID-19 pandemic, we moved to an online meeting
format. This was not really conducive to submitting work for review by
other club members.

In an attempt to provide members with a forum to post images for
review we set up a Facebook page and invited members to post images
for comment and review.  This was not particularly successful and very few people used the page for that purpose. 

The KSCCC Executive discussed the value of having a Facebook page and, as a result of these discussions, it was determined that the site would be shut down immediately.

Help with a book

At the Seniors Centre open house held on September 7, Marianne Wilkinson approached the club for help:

I’m in the process of completing a book about Kanata.  Its title is “The Kanata Concept” and the subheading is “how the community created an award-winning city”.   I’m presently looking for photos or maps that will illustrate parts of the book, particularly ones showing the community in its early years, historic sites/buildings that still exist, and some of the terrain.

If any member of the camera club has photos that would be suitable I’d like to see them and if they are used give credit to the photographer.  If others are willing to take some now of sites that I’d provide I’d do the same, giving credit in the book.
