Paul-

This is an excellent idea! Unfortunately, there are only two 
competitions a year that have "novice" and "master" classes. These are 
not club competitions, but stereo competitions run by the club for the 
local Council (where any club member from any member club of the Council 
can compete). Our monthly club competitions are not divided. Maybe they 
should be to separate the skill levels, but each competition has a large 
trophy which is engraved with the winner's name and the year. Each 
competition has a set subject matter and the trophies are named in honor 
for different people who have contributed to the club. Perhaps the 
novices could compete for medals only and if you want a chance at the 
trophy, you have to compete in advanced (or master - whatever term is 
used). I often wonder if we would get more participation if we had a 
novice class where they may not feel as intimidated to enter. This is in 
place with most of the other area clubs (not stereo) and works very 
well. There is a lot of member participation. Since one of our goals is 
to promote stereo photography and participation, perhaps this could 
work. I would be interested in hearing from club members (both PSSP and 
other clubs) OFF the list. Any suggestions and/or comments are much 
appreciated.
