More Help for Club Leaders on ‘Planetstamp’

Are you a junior stamp club leader? Or perhaps you are thinking of setting up a club for your young collectors? For a few years, www.planetstamp.co.uk has been run as a ‘kids only’ domain, but we’ve had so many ‘seniors’ comment on its useful information, that we recently expanded it to include a section just for Club Leaders.

This section has now been developed further with a bigger ‘Letterbox’ archive of the most often asked questions and answers on how to run a junior stamp club. Our resident guru, Erene Grieve, has compiled a wonderful array of queries and our ‘webmaster’ Tony Lancaster will continue to enlarge the archive with regular updates thanks to the ongoing sponsorship from Cavendish Auctions. If you have a question, email erenegrieve@f2s.com

The ‘Kidstamps’ club on the site, previously run by the late Anne Dummer, is now in the capable hands of Christine Finn. There will be new competitions and more articles from ‘Squidge’ (the stamp collecting squirrel) for our young collectors to enjoy.

For those interested in competing, don’t forget the British Youth Stamp Championships, generously sponsored by Stanley Gibbons Ltd. Entry forms and details are all on the site, and exhibits will be on display in November at ‘Torquay 2006’.

If you’d like more information about Stamp Active Network and our support of young collectors, please email our Secretary, John Davies davies1890@aol.com
