Club Meetings
Club meetings are held in April, June, September, and December. In June, the last meeting before our summer break, we enjoy a field trip to a local venue that has a postcard or historical relevance to the club. In December we celebrate the season at our holiday dinner get-together.
The April and September meetings are held at the Sport Alliance of Ontario Building, 1185 Eglinton Ave East (at Don Mills Road) Room 3B. The first half hour is for the exchange of postcard chat, a free coffee and browsing through materials brought for the evening presentation. A presentation by a member of the club or a guest speaker on a topic of interest to history buffs and postcard collectors follows. From time to time, one of our Dealer members is also present offering a selection of postcards for sale before the meeting begins. Directions.

THURSDAY, JUNE 12th, 2008 - Field Trip to Toronto’s Elegant and Historical University Club. Gentlemen to wear jackets, no ties are required. Jeans are not permitted. Details to follow.
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 11th, 2008 - Gary Peck, (TPC#131) presents “Greetings from Algoma”. Over the years, Gary has provided TPC members with many insights to his Northern Ontario home through his articles in ‘CARD TALK’ featuring postcards from his collection. We expect that his personal presentation of the Algoma story will be just as informative and entertaining.
