There was a Saint John Stamp Club meeting held on Wednesday, May 28, 2025 at the Hampton Inn at 7 PM.
There were 16 of us there: Jim J, Jim Y, Gordon, Joanne, Andrew, Jim M, Debra, David, Susan, Tom, Steve, David W, Paul, Willard, David H and Jean.
David Williams called the meeting to order. He said that Canada Post has not issued any stamps since April 2025.
The minutes of the meeting of April 23, 2025 were presented and reviewed. Willard made a motion to accept the minutes as presented. Tom mentioned there was an error in the minutes, that the Coin/Stamp show for June 1 will be held at the Delta on King Street and not at the branch 69 Legion as stated. Tom seconded the motion.
The Treasurers Report was presented by Tom for the month of April 2025. We have a balance of $948.18 in the bank. David H made a motion to accept the Treasurers Report as submitted and Steve seconded the motion.
Willard talked about the land and sea program on YouTube and Steve also said that it was on the club’s website.
On June 1st, Sunday from 9:30 until 2:30 at the Delta there is a Coin/Stamp Show on the third floor. It is $3.00 to get in. Anybody that would like to help volunteer in giving people a break would be greatly appreciated.
The Coin/Stamp show for September has been cancelled as it is too close to other shows.
It was discussed that people that are not paying dues and not showing up for meetings to be dropped off our membership list
Andrew mentioned that the RCS stamp club started in 1956 (Rothesay collegiate school).
Gordon talked about Mystic Island.
Steve talked about stamp mounts - $18.00.
We had a 50-50 draw and David W won $38.50. Congratulations to David on his winnings.
We had an attendance draw and Debra Meisner won. Congratulations to Debra on her winnings.
Jim J had a quiz for us and 3 people won first place. They were Jim M, Andrew and Steve . Congratulations guys.
Some members bought a copy of the Philatelic Dictionary published by Canadian Stamp News.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned. The next meeting to be held on June 25, 2025 at 6 :30 o’clock at the Hampton Inn. It will be a pizza/Chinese supper that Tom will look after and Joanne will look after the desserts.
We then had our auction with Jim Young being our auctioneer and Andrew McKenna helping him out. We made a total of $198. Thank you to everybody that supported the auction.
