I've never been asked for it when arriving on site. I sometimes get asked whsn making a phone booking but always volunteer the number when not asked.
As to whether non members are staying on site I would be surprised if one or two don't play the system. Maybe former members or relatives of members and I am sure that out of over 2,200 CL sites a few owners will turn a blind eye. However I do believe most owners are straight about bookings. At least I hope so.

We have used dozens of different CLs down the years. Most ask for membership number when we book, or ask for card when we arrive, a few don’t bother. It’s not something we stress about to be honest, and in over a couple of decades, we have never encountered anyone who obviously wasn’t a member. The website only allows Members to view full CL details, although they might be available on other websites.
If I am being really honest, I don’t think being a Member influences behaviour any different from being a none Member. There are (mainly) good and (a few bad) examples in both camps.

There is a text check facility for owners to verify membership numbers. I check every membership number in this way and it tells me whether they are current members, membership expired or 'unkown'. I then act on that information accordingly.
As a consequence I don't check membership cards on arrival unless it's someone who turns up on speck and we have an available pitch for them.
I do know many other CL owners also use the text check facility.

Posted on 25/06/2019 19:42 by brueThe website was updated quite a while ago TDA and the CL section is visible for anyone to view.
Like others we usually write our membership number on emails etc but have rarely been asked to provide a card. I can't say it's a major concern for us.

As Nicola - Skybarn Farm CL
As a CL owner I also use the CAMC text service to validate membership numbers when they book. So I don't check membership cards on arrival.
