Cambridge Camera Club - Anyone a member?

[cambsno]

When tog bug really hit me I put my name down for Cambridge Camera Club - www.cambcc.org.uk - who had no available memberships then. Got an email out the blue yesterday seeing if I wanted to join. Is anyone else on here a member and what are your thoughts?

Not Cambridge, I'm a member of Swavesey as my view was that Cambridge seemed a bit big. They do have some very talented members though

waiting list for a camera club? sounds a bit exclusive, unless there are great benefits.. lol

 

[grumpybadger]

No, they just have a cap on the number of members due to available space and so you have to wait for someone to leave/die

I think it's standing room only as it is

Cambridge seems to have a 'waiting list' so that it doesn't get student oiks joining and ruining their camera-club ethos with some more radical thinking.

Perhaps I'm a bit bitter about camera clubs in general and like the more radical thinking of academics and their students.
