10 months ago, while VERY frustrated with my very 'traditional' and frankly boring camera club I helped start a new one, in a new style - we've embraced Facebook as our means of communication & sharing, and that is working fantastically, mini-meets are organised weekly, and big meets monthly or so (this weekend's in Leeds has 19 attending)
This week we signed up our 50th Member making the newest club around the BIGGEST club around to me (Barnsley, South Yorks)
We are MASSIVELY focused on talking about, teaching about and shooting PHOTOGRAPHY - and hence the club has grown quickly - I've already been asked to go help new clubs form elsewhere, but that's another story
The point of this post then is... IF you were joining a photography club WHAT would YOU want from it ???
Please post ANY ideas, for anything, we've tried to get our new members to tell us what they want but with limited success - shy? No idea? Apathy? Who knows - but to keep the throng happy we need to plan hence I'm hoping you lot can help
ALL and ANY ideas welcomed - from what works for your camera club to non-club members' (newbies even) thoughts on what may attract you to join one - cheers
