The yearly bills were discussed and voted on by the membership in attendance.

Due to the pandemic of the Delta Virus, the membership has decided not to participate in this year’s Holiday Tree Celebration at the librar

It was announced by Silvia that over 340 large packets of stamps have been given out this month to schools, church groups, and civic groups.

September the club membership will vote for the new officers for 2022. Any member interested in running for office please notify the club at the club’s email – stampandcoin@hotmail.com

Holiday Party is confirmed for Monday November 22, 2021 at Golden Corral. Everyone attending must be at their seats no later than 3:30 pm for the head count. As in the past each member will be allowed one guest. If you are going to arrive after 3:30 pm, you must inform David R. so you can be added to the head count.

We welcome new member #320 Crissy C. Let’s make sure that all the members make the new members feel at home.

Phil K. won the 50/50.

Ten dollars gift cards were won by Jean P. and Jacob S. Congratulations to them!

The very special door prizes were a great success once again!

September’s meeting auction will once again feature donated silver coins. The list of these coins will be sent out to each member.

A cash donation was made from Belk’s for participating in their charity event of two years ago .

We now have available to the membership flash drives for the world wide pages, stamp glossary, and blank topical pages. These are the same items that were given out to members in CD format. The club was informed that there are some members that do not have a CD drive on their computers/laptops so this will make it possible for all to enjoy this added benefit to club members. If you need this flash drive, please let David know.

Our educational program will be put on by Paul S. on the 911 attack. Paul was present at the Twin Towers after the attack.

Thank you all for helping out with the auction , the 50/50 , calling of the very special door prizes, the bringing in of the tables and putting them back . It is greatly appreciated by all ..

Kind regards always,

David and Silvia
