BRAMALEA STAMP CLUB

A warm thank you to Duncan Barber, who lined up the judges and the exhibitors. To Ingo Nessel,who booked the hall and made the arrangements for set up as well as looking after the financial aspects of the show. To Ron Feero, who was in charge of lining up the dealers for the show. To Bob Thorne for his leadership and overall organization. To these four, we owe our gratitude.

On show day, many club memebers helped in the set up and take down. Ben Prins, Don Garlick, Duncan and Karen Barber, as well as Gerry Heuvingh and Jerry Piotrowski come to mind. Ron Walker and Paul Nicholls looked after the auction table and announcements. As usual, Bill Dean was at the door greeting the public and directing the youth area. And thanks to the snack bar girls Frieda Brockbank and Marion Dawson along with new member Suzanne. To Geoff Green, and others who ran errands to the store and around the building. A warm thank you to all.

A very special thanks goes to our circiut book manager and his crew. Frank Alusio of the Greater Toronto Area Philatelic Alliance presented Laurie Despres with the first GTAPA Certificate of Appreciation for his service as sales circuit manager.
