Campbelltown District Philatelic Society
About Us
Our club formed in 1972 to provide a venue for seniors and juniors to meet on a regular basis to further their hobby. This ideal continues today with members meeting regularly (monthly) to discuss, exchange, purchase and generally enjoy stamp collecting.
We regularly display items from our collections and enjoy a warm and friendly social interaction at the same time.
Our club promotes stamp collecting in the MaCarthur area by holding stamp fairs, talking on the local radio, promoting juniors etc.
We have around 25 regular members attend meetings. We also have *postal members within Australia and overseas. Postal members receive our monthly newsletter on a quarterly basis and information on special limited edition overprints that are for sale
