As I read this, I came to feel your dilemma. The "newbies" can only get so inspired before hopelessness, frustration followed by boredom, set in. What we all want is to feel prepared as we seek that opportune moment.

At the end of last session, i declined to continue on as VP, so i will be just one of the ordinary Joes, so to speak. However not sure i want to re up. The original idea was good, start the club and teach the new camera owners how to get off Auto and enjoy all aspects of their cameras. However we have gotten pretty big, fast, about 50 members now, up from the original 12. Most of last year, and what i can see for this year, will be guest speakers. Now thats fine, we all enjoy the lectures and seeing their photos and how they did them, but i only see one meeting were we will be teaching the newbies so to speak, how to work the cameras. I enjoy the company but nowt sure its going to be worth the $65. Decisions decisions.
