CMNClist Is a fully moderated Message Board that runs on Google Groups. It is a free service available to all CMNC members (both Basic and Supporting.) It’s a quick and easy way to post/receive news pertinent to the local chamber music community such as upcoming concerts, instruments for sale, and players seeking interested players. Subscribers typically receive a few email messages each week.
