On the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month, Sequoia Stamp Club holds their meetings at Redwood City Community Activities Building (CAB), 1400 Roosevelt Ave, Redwood City, CA. Doors open at 6:30 PM and the meeting starts at 7:00 PM. The meeting room is open until 9:00 PM, and the building lobby until 9:30 PM, giving attendees plenty of time to conduct business and socialize. Visitors are always welcome.
If you’re unable to attend in person, we also offer the option of using Zoom to attend some of our meetings virtually using your computer or phone. Members receive an email before each meeting with a link to the Zoom meeting that starts at 7:10 PM (the first 10 minutes of the meeting are reserved for local socializing). Meetings on the 2nd Tuesday of the month are always hybrid (Zoom) meetings; meetings on the 4th Tuesday of the month are typically in-person only, with occasional exceptions. Hybrid meeting dates are underlined below.
At each meeting, there will be either a silent auction, a live auction, or a swap meet where members can obtain stamps for their collections.
Items shown in GREEN below are related club activities that are held on a non-meeting night, time, or location. Please take note of the date and time. Dates in BOLD are other philatelic-related events in the area.
We welcome guests! If possible, please come to the CAB, so we can meet you in person. But if you would like to attend a meeting virtually, email our secretary, John Corwin, at SequoiaStampClub@yahoo.com. Please introduce yourself and tell him which meeting(s) you would like to attend; he will send you a Zoom link that you can click a few minutes before 7:10 PM.
