November 20, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Have Fun Earning the Stamp Collecting Merit Badge
There is a workshop coming up soon:
Sat. Oct 15th at Presbyterian Church of Los Gatos AND Sat Nov 20th Filatelic Fiesta Stamp Show
Discover the fun of stamp collecting. Explore the USA or the country of your family heritage by collecting its stamps. Expand your knowledge in a topic like your favorite sport or interest in cars, animals, or art by collecting stamps about it. The merit badge workshop costs $15 which covers the costs for a stamp collecting starter kit and access to a huge hoard of stamps to pick from to build your first collection. It is estimated that there about 1 million total stamps and are from nearly every country and wide array of topics. This is the largest assortment of stamps of any stamp collecting merit badge program. All stamps needed for your collection are provided.
Yes, you need to attend two sessions. We’ll cover a most of requirements on 10/15, and you’ll get to pick out stamps for your collection. At the Filatelic Fiesta Stamp Show on Nov 20th, we’ll sign-off your collection and tour the show. If you can’t attend the Nov 20 meeting, it’s possible to schedule an alternative.
