Hi,
I would like to join you. What are the fees, if any and how to become a member?
Thanks
Hisam
You can just fill out the form – it’s under Joining – and snail mail it to us with $45. Or, better, you could come to a meeting. Our next one on April 17th promises to be very interesting.
Is it $45 a month? A session? Do you offer any discounts for student/post-education?
Thank you!
It’s $45 per year to join the club. You don’t need to be a member to come to meetings, though.
I wanted to come to your meeting last night but didn;t see the location is it the Yerba B Center?

Those considering joining are encouraged to visit us during one of your monthly meeting.
See you there!
Hi,
when will be a good day to come to one of your meeting? Is there someone in particular to ask for?
Hi Thomas – you’re welcome to come the first or third Thursday of any month. We’re a friendly group and always welcome visitors. There’s no need to ask for anyone in particular; one of the regulars will spot a new face and make sure you’re taken care of.
Regards – Martin
I would like to come to your meeting is it this week? Aug 13, 09 may I come by?
Please let me know if I can and what I need to bring.
Thank you,
Viva
No meeting this week, Viva, but please do come by Thursday the 20th for Kyoto and the Rhine.
Approximately how many members attend each meeting? each field trip? And is there an average age of your “participating” members?? Thanks.
Carol – it really depends on the meeting and the time of year but we probably have 30 people turn up to a meeting, a dozen to a field trip (again depends on location, subject and time of year) – we have members in their 20’s thru 80’s with the medium somewhere along that range.
Will there be a meeting this Thursday 10/22?
Yippee! A meeting tomorrow evening! On my calendar, see you tomorrow.
I know you don’t have your 2010 calendar up yet, but will you be conducting any meetings in January?
I’d like to join. When is the next meeting?
Hi Deepak & Judy
Our first meeting of the year is this Thursday (January 7th): http://photochrome.org/?m=20100107&cat=25 We’d love to see you there. Let me know if you need any details.
Regards – Martin
Hi,
I’m a beginner photographer who has just discovered this new hobby. Just been taking automatic shots with the Canon PowerShot SD990 but would like to learn more…is this club more for intermediate and advanced photographers?
We have a range of skill sets, Jen, and if you’re wanting to improve, you’re exactly in the same situation as everyone else. :^) Come by one of the meetings!
Since the next meeting is not until May 13 and I’m new, is it possible to join you guys at the Fitzgerald field trip?
