MEETINGS & MEMBERSHIP A brief business meeting begins at 7 p.m. Postcard competition follows. Any member may enter the monthly single card/board theme completion. Members are encouraged to study the postcards on display. The attending membership votes for their favorite postcard. This monthly competition is open to all members and is a way of showing different postcards from private collections. There is a small monetary prize for first, second, and third place winners. A monthly program, usually a presentation about postcards, begins after that contest. Local history or unique postcards are the most frequent topics. Upcoming programs include:
