The Tech Club meets the second Monday evening of each month from 7 to 8 p.m. in Room 104 at the Creative Arts Technology Center. We have no dues, and attendance is open for any Robson resident who is interested in anything that is tech related, regardless of what they own or understand but have a desire to learn more about. As an enhancement to our Tech Club members, we are now offering a presenter video recording that can be accessed through membership in Groups.io (formerly known as Yahoo Groups) at rrtxtech.groups.io/g/main and our new website robsontech.club/tag/tech_club.

Our March 13 meeting was hosted by Steve Simpson with a presentation on “Traveling with Your Smartphone.” This meeting was on how to use strategy for traveling with your smartphone, as presented by Scott Kelby of kelbyone.com.

We had a robust number of Robson attendees who had many questions about how to best use their camera phone when they travel. Major presentation topics included: Shoot with Intention, Low Light, Exposure Compensation, Go Ultrawide, Optical Zoom, Photographing Food, Panoramas, Cleaning Your Lenses, Portrait Mode, and Top Tips.

Our next general session is on April 10, and we are working to have a CoServ representative be our guest presenter. We hope to see everyone then.
