SSCC welcomes the membership of all those interested in photography, regardless of skill level. Current yearly membership dues are $50 for individuals, $35 for students, and $80 for a family. For comprehensive information on the club, see the Member Handbook, accessed from the SSCC website ( Member Handbook 2022-2023).

Besides the camaraderie and educational programs, renewing your membership means you are eligible to enter your best shots in our monthly photo competition, and continue to receive our award-winning newsletter, the Cable Release.

Membership dues cover the SSCC fiscal year, which is September through May.  If you paid dues after last September, please note that you need to renew this September, at beginning of our club’s fiscal year (not on the anniversary of your previous dues payment).

Payment of dues (and filling out the Membership Form) can be done online now.  Please go to Online Membership Form to join or renew online. Payment of dues by either credit card or check is offered, and either is an option in the online form. 

To reiterate the check information here, make the check to “SSCC” and give or send to the SSCC treasurer at the address below, or hand to any club officer during in-person meetings.

We realize that recent world events have put a financial strain on many of our friends and neighbors. If you are unable to join SSCC because of a financial reason, please contact the membership committee. Your continuing participation is important.
