The Marauders participate in one (and sometimes more) photo outings each month, mostly on Wednesday, with some weekend outings.  We choose locations within about a 1 hour drive from Albuquerque. 

Attendees are members of the Enchanted Lens Camera club, and their invited guests. Marauders outings are communicated by Club e-mail and the outing is also posted on the Club Calendar. Photographs of attendees of Marauder Outings may be posted on the ELCC Marauder Flickr Group site, as well as included in photo collages which are distributed to club members via email. 

   

Barry Schwartz and Earl Schwers, are the Marauders Co-Chairs.  Team members are: Stephen Foiles, Laura Munzlinger, Carla Chirigos, Jan Ward, Mike McGovern, Joanne Ladisa, and Tom Kilroy.  

We encourage members to post their Marauders images on Flickr, in the Marauders Group. You can join the group by following these instructions:

Once you have joined Flickr, go to your new home page.  At the top of their page there is a search box that says “Photos, people, or groups”. Enter “ELCC” and then click the “groups” drop down. You should get all of the ELCC’s Groups with those letters.  Click the join button for the “ELCC Mid-Week Marauders” and Tom Kilroy will approve your entry to the group when he gets the Flickr’s auto email.  Once you are approved as a member of the Flickr Marauders Group, when you are uploading an image, click on the “Add To Groups”  and select the Marauders Group. For images already posted in Flickr, scroll down to the “Add to Group” box, and a list of your groups will open – and select the Marauders Group and the image will be added to the Flickr Marauders Group.
