Many of our members have asked about the auction rules and where to get the form we use for listing an item in the auction. To make it easy, a link has been added to the bottom of the calendar event, or you can visit the new auction page to find everything you need. Our next auction is Feb. 9, 2026. Come ready to outbid your fellow collectors!

During the COVID pandemic, our club moved its meetings online. What began as a necessity quickly became an opportunity. The virtual format proved engaging, accessible, and unexpectedly fun, allowing us not only to stay connected but also to share our hobby with collectors far beyond our local community. Now that the pandemic is a distant memory, we have returned to twice monthly in-person meetings, while continuing to meet online on the first Monday of each month.

There are dozens of presentations, short and long, that have only been shared on a limited basis. That just doesn’t feel right, but we have some medicine for this problem. We’ve just added three videos to the archive page, all from guest speakers.

• Discover the Art of Stamp Expertizing with APS Director of Expertizing Ken Martin
• Introduction to Collecting Revenue Stamps by Paul Petersen
• Introduction to Private Die Proprietary Stamps by Dr. Charles J. DiComo

Over the next few weeks, we will be adding more videos to our archive page that you can either view on site or on YouTube. We hope you enjoy them, and remember hit the like button and subscribe!
