Our October meeting will be at our normal third Wednesday:
October 19, at 7:00 p.m. at
the Scottish Rite Masonic Center, 4090 Commercial St. SE (just south
of a MacDonalds). Visitors are welcome.
The meeting will also be accessible by Zoom. Write to
salemstampsociety@gmail.com several days before the meeting for
the Zoom invitation.
George
Struble will tell us how exhibiting his stamp collections made
him a better and more focused collector and a more knowledgeable
philatelist, and encourage all of us to pepare exhibits.
Opportunities to show exhibits:
1. Our Christmas party, where we can all show small
exhibits
2. The Willamette Valley show in March
3, PIPEX -- whose exhibits will be primarily virtual,
in May
Mark your calendars for our Christmas
party! It will be Wednesday, December 7 -- not our usual third
Wednesday because that would be too close to Christmas -- at and
catered by -- the Scottish Rite Masonic Center. Entrees
will be salmon and prime rib; the cost is $20.00. You can sign
up at the October meeting.
Elections of club officers are coming at our November meeting.
Nominees wanted for Vice President and Directors. Tell Lisa Janz
of your interest, or put your name forward at our October meeting.
Tell Mike Braet if you are willing to provide a "Frame of the
Month" at one of our meetings.
Salem Stamp Society has a new way
to contact the leaders of the club: a club email address
salemstampsociety@gmail.com. That
mailbox will be checked frequently, and emails received will be
forwarded to an appropriate person.
