Our next meeting is September 20th at our new location.  Our usual meetings feature a meal which can be bought from the restaurant's menu. 

The new meeting place is Cafe Bellini in Petaluma.

THIS MEETING IS SEPTEMBER  20th-  6 PM at the Cafe Bellini









                                                                     There will be a presentation by club member Dennis Buss. 

                                                                       The program title is:
     "Alexander von Humboldt on Stamps:  Who Was He and Why Should We Remember Him."

 Von Humboldt was a world famous explorer and scientist in the early 1800s.  His observations and discoveries provided the basis for modern environmental science.  Numerous countries especially in Latin America and Europe have issued stamps commemorating his achievements.  Past President Dennis always gives us very informative PowerPoint presentations that feature details that provoke interest.  There will be a open discussion afterwards and you must come to share Dennis' knowledge of this little known but highly praised scientist. 

                                                           Thank you Dennis!


Co-Presidents Nancy Jensen and Sharon Oman are organizing RECC meetings to be held in 2023. 

This meeting will be presided by Presidents Sharon Oman and Nancy Jensen.

We need you to be at this get-together meeting for the following reasons:
        1.To see the Philatelic Presentation.
       2. See what special philatelic item members bring to show and talk about.
       3. Add some stamps, covers, postal history or other items to your collection
       4. Share your talent, skills, experiences and knowledge with our members.

                 Nancy Jensen always graciously mails the agenda , thank you Nancy.

It is a good time for us to continue to share our collecting interests in both philately and in other collections.  As collectors we at times don't just limit our instinctive gathering desires to philately.  In each of us dwells the accumulation spirit and we often seek those elusive, mysterious and precious items that warm our hearts.  Perhaps this is your opportunity to present to the attention of the club what you also collect and in doing such we will all experience humor, fascination and wonder.  Please contact Sharon Oman or Victor Ivashin by phone or email to arrange how we post your item in our Member Philately section of this site.  Thank you One and All  for sending something along.
