There was a photo of the month competition that ran for a moment and then died.
In my experience, the photos for the New Year's calender should be collated and grouped ready by no later than the end of September and marketed no later than mid-November.
Price them modestly and with UK and also oversea's postage as these must differ widely.
To send ours out, I bought a batch of protected 'Jiffy' bag envelopes from Ebay, not expensive and another reflection of how a quality product should be received.
No 'rewards' (Rob
) for participation, proud to be active should be enough AND with the chance of seeing one's car up online AND in next year's calender !
If you want to give them out 'free', have a club membership fee (as now) and a membership 'pack' to include a calender and maybe some club trinket - pen, ticket neck-strap, car sticker etc !
To ease costs, drop the membership pack sent out (if it still is ?) so £15 gets you better access and editing on the forum, all the other club membership benefits (ins quote), access to club stands and reduced entry prices a events around the country etc,etc and, say, £25 is the top dog's danglies m'ship.
Perhaps having a reguler, quality calender is another step towards some form of dare I say it, annual club review - something to be enjoyed by all and especially those members not on this forum or at least not regularly....keep 'em members with a review, calender, sticker and goodies.
