In this New Year, let's all take a moment to be thankful for the sacrifices our

Also pray for our leaders in these times, as always, that they make wise decisions and
keep our country safe and free.

congressmen.  We may not seem
to be accomplishing anything at
times, but we are at least
slowing things down. We need
to be vigilant, protecting our
rights as hobby collectors. We
have to be active in this or we
will lose our ability to collect and
pursue our hobby.  

We'll will post names and
numbers for our Congress folks,
so you'll be able to bug em'.

HELPING OTHERS
The club participates in the NFMS
stamp program, saving large
commemoratives, airmail, pre-
canceled, foreign and “ordinary”
stamps of all values. Members are
encouraged to use and save
commemorative stamps. The money
generated from the sale of these
used (cancelled) stamps is then
donated to Cancer Research. The
collected stamps can be sent to the
Stamps Chairman, or brought to a
meeting and given to our Fed
Chairperson, Kathi Milem.
Next regular monthly meeting, March 8th, 7pm at the Klamath County Museum.
These are pretty handy Charts, we use them often to time precious metals purchases,
always trying to catch the market in a dip.
