Flagpole Wins Interclub Competition vs Oxford Greens

In the first annual “Oxpole” 1-1 Digital Interclub Competition held Wednesday, July 12, 2017 at Oxford Greens, Flagpole Photographers walked away with the top honors. Judge Tom Peterson, president of the Heritage Village Camera Club, said “there were 50 great photos in this competition and in some cases there was only a fraction of a point difference between the two photos.” In the final tally, Flagpole Photographers Camera Club received the winning nod 16 times compared to the Camera Club of Oxford Greens’ 9 category wins.

Twenty-five categories had been agreed to between the two camera clubs and then each club selected one photo to represent their club in every category match-up. All photos had to have been taken by a club member and no member could have more than three photos in the final competition. 

Over 60 people were present to watch the competition and cheer for their favorite photo and team. Following the competition, the attendees were treated to pizza and salad.

While Flagpole was the first club to take home the newly designed trophy, Oxford Greens vowed they will be back even stronger next year!
