Our August meeting will be at our normal third Wednesday:
August 17, 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.
The August program will be presented by George
Stellengwerf on Modern Counterfeits. George Struble will present
the "frame of the month" with the Switzerland to Hawaii piece of his
airmail rate study exhibit, including two round-the-world covers
that went opposite directions. The September program will be by Larry Crain. In October George
Struble will try to get our members to prepare exhibits for our
Willamette Valley show in March.
Mark your calendars for our fall STAMPEX show September 18. See
the list of dealers who will be present by going to our Shows page.
Also 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.
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.
