The Upper Merion Camera Club (UMCC) objectives are to focus on the promotion and improvement of creative photography and its applications, and to facilitate the exchange of information and ideas
in this field.
General membership meetings take place Wednesday evenings from September through May starting at 7:30 P.M. Meetings are held at the Port Kennedy Presbyterian Church on Old Valley Forge Road
(near US 422 and the Valley Forge Towers) in King of Prussia, PA. See the Meeting Schedule for details. The main program is usually a speaker or presenter on
photographic topics; either a "how to" program or slide shows on travel or other subjects of interest. The last Wednesday of the month is reserved for the monthly competition, which is judged either
by a panel of three "inside" judges, or a judge from outside the club, an experienced photographer who can give an independent evaluation of the members' photographs.
Throughout the year, members gather together and travel to various local and regional destinations in search of photographic opportunities. During the club year of September to May, we may plan
fall, winter, or spring day trips. During the summer break, we keep a full calendar for Wednesday evenings. We also often gather informally
Saturday morning and head out with gear in tow.
The club operates on a not-for-profit basis. Our regular meetings and programs are open to guests free of charge. Membership is required to participate in competitions.
Dues for the September through May camera club year are $30.
Upper Merion Camera Club is a member of the The Photographic Society of America (PSA) and The
Delaware Valley Council of Camera Clubs.
