Warren Gould: Wolfeboro Stamp Club Open House & Boston 2026 Expo

To The Daily Sun,

Did readers know that Wolfeboro has a thriving postage stamp collectors’ club? The Wolfeboro Stamp Club is an active group that meets the first Thursday of each month at All Saints Church (Beck Library) from 6 to 8 p.m.

We’ve been meeting for more than 30 years — trading stamps, discussing philatelic topics, and enjoying good company. Some members are new to the hobby, others are returning after time away, and some have collected continuously. What we share is an appreciation for those small pieces of paper that connect the world — from an oasis in the Sahara to a rocky islet in the South Pacific to an Alaskan village.

This is a special year for stamp collecting. The Boston 2026 World Stamp Expo will be held May 23-30 in Boston. This international exhibition occurs only once every 10 years and is part of America’s 250th anniversary celebration in one of the nation’s most historic cities. Admission is free, and more information is available at Boston2026.org.

As a warm-up to this event, the Wolfeboro Stamp Club will host an Open House and Membership Drive on Saturday, May 16, from noon to 2:30 p.m. at All Saints Church, 258 South Main Street in Wolfeboro (across from the police station and library). There will be stamps for sale — and some for free. Bring stories about a family collection, explore returning to the hobby, or try it for the first time. Friendly members will be there to answer questions — no pressure, just a fun and welcoming experience.

Please stop by — we look forward to seeing guests. Call me at 603-569-8678 with questions.
