On its website, the CVCC says members can expect interactive photo sessions, informative educational presentations and guest speakers as well as local and out-of-town field trips.
There are also two social events each year – one in the summer and one for the holiday season in December.
"These are well-attended, fun events that bring our members closer to one another," the club says.
