It can be, or not. Personally, we believe that Ham Community is the perfect HAM club environment. It provides all the key features needed to manage a club. There is a nets calendar, there are blogs for leadership, there are discussion forums, club moderators can send out newsletters, there are even member image galleries to post Field Day photos, meeting photos or other. There is also a downloads section where clubs can keep their important files such as the club constitution, or meeting minutes, for members to download freely.

This said, clubs are welcome to have their own website and use Ham Community as their community building tool.

Note that clubs can keep their own domain name (url) and simply 'point it' to their personal Ham Community space.
