PSA-member organizations that include several camera clubs; whether the group of clubs is called a Council, a Federation, or an Association, were all eligible to enter the annual PSA Councils Challenge.  Each “group” may enter ten digital images from ten different makers in each of the following sections: Color General (Open), Monochrome General (Open), and Nature General (Open). N4C submitted the images from the winners in our competitions.

Each section was judged separately. Individual winners in each section are selected. Organizations in each section are ranked. The scores for each section are tallied and an overall top scoring group is identified.

The New England Camera Club Council (NECCC) came in first in Nature with 129 points.

Other first place winners included Chicago Area Camera Clubs Organization (over-all), Southern California Camera Club Council (Color), and Chicago Area Camera Clubs Organization (Monochrome).
