Yes, looks like it... so that's a C14, right?

Nearly. A C14 (http://www.celestron.com/c3/product.php?ProdID=114) is a
particular model of telescope made by Celestron. This picture appears to
be of a roughly equivalent Meade.

To me, that photograph doesn't look like anything past an 11-incher.
Meade makes a 16-inch SCT, but I didn't think it ever made a 14-inch
SCT. Maybe the club does own a C14, and they accidentally put a
picture of a smaller Meade on the web site instead.

Ah, but a web search

tells me I'm mistaken, and Meade does make 14 inch SCTs.
