Since the “Blog” was first introduced to the club several years ago, it has evolved into an efficient communication and resource hub. Lets use it! Check out the Resources. Make comments and give us your feedback. Give us suggestions. Check out the Trip Schedule and plan which trip to go on…..and check back often in case there are changes. Did you really enjoy a particular trip? Let us know………..It’s all about communication!
Please note that the Blog is a separate entity from the web site, the major difference being that the blog is a portal that is only available to our members and the web site is available to the public to let them know we exist.
How does it work?
Email Notifications
These notifications are to let members know that there is new information posted on the blog. It is not the blog post itself. Videos, photos, links, etc. will not work in these emails, so you have to read the blog post. To read the entire post, click on the “post title” or the “continue reading on the OSSCC Blog” button to access the announcement on the Blog. (You will either go directly to the post (if you are logged in) or to the login page (if you aren’t logged in) page. You might find it more convenient to click on the “Remember me” box to stay logged in. Please take the time to read these blog posts carefully!!

Also on the Blog, you will find photo slideshows of our trips, as well as instruction videos to help reinforce skills taught in our training sessions. We are slowly posting more resources with the idea that the Blog will continue being the information repository for our Club.
