USPCS at GASS
The USPCS invites you to join us at the Great American Stamp Show (GASS) in Chicago the weekend of August 12-15 at the Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois.
Society Dinner
The USPCS and Royal Philatelic Society London will jointly hold a reception and dinner Thursday evening, August 12.
- Time: 4:30 pm – 9:00 pm
- Place: Fogo de Chão
- Price: $89
- Reservations required: contact Alex Haimann at haimannat@gmail.com
The event will have a private area for the reception with a cash bar. Dinner will be in an adjoining private dining room. The standing reception will begin at 16:30 and continue until 18:30 with everyone then sitting down for dinner. We have received feedback from prior attendees that they would like more time to socialize before dinner and the 2-hour reception is our solution. Feel free to arrive at any point between the 16:30-18:30 time frame.
