About the Club
We are a group of collectors and philatelists who have the good fortune to live on Cape Cod in Massachusetts.
Our group was organized in 2001 to promote philately, to assist with the exchange of philatelic material and to promote good fellowship among our members. Our founding members were Chip Bishop, Doug Clark, Nancy Clark, Hugh Daugherty and Mike Mead.
We were granted Chapter #1532 of the American Philatelic Society on March 31, 2002. As such we abide by the APS code of ethics,
http://stamps.org/Code-of-Ethics
We meet on the second Thursday of every month at 6:30 p.m., with noted exceptions, excluding the summer months of June-August.
A small bourse;
A brief business meeting;
The sharing of APS circuit books; and,
A presentation by one of our members (See schedule below for 2018/19)
We’re usually home and tucked in (some of us, anyway) by 9:30 p.m.
Visitors are always welcome at our meetings. Just drop in if you’re vacationing or if you live here. If you like what you see, you can join us for just $15 a year.
