Extending Our Reach

Published on September 25, 2025

The CWPS is consistently looking for opportunities to educate others while expanding our reach in the collecting community. CWPS member Trish Kaufmann has developed an educational presentation that can be delivered to a wide range of audiences. The presentation covers a broad spectrum of both Union and Confederate Postal History topics. It provides a cross section of topics designed to engage the audience and generate interest in our Society.

We are in need of CWPS members who are willing to share their enthusiasm with others and enlist them to explore this interesting time in our nation’s history. Help is also needed in identifying groups that would be interested in having the CWPS speak at their events. The presentation was created to be given at stamp clubs, stamp shows and other groups such as Civil War Roundtables. Our members are the best source to identify opportunities at local stamp clubs and Civil War related events.

Call to Action

The hard work has been done. Several individuals have taken the leap and shared this presentation already and we have people ready to help you get started. You will be provided with the presentation materials along with supporting documentation to help you prepare for the event. The presentation has been structured to be delivered in 25 to 35 minutes and does not require extensive training or specific in-depth knowledge to present

Take the next Step!  Start by contacting the team at contact@civilwarphilatelicsociety.org . A team member will get back to you shortly to assist you. You can click here to see a delivery of this presentation by Trish Kaufmann to the Philatelic Society of Lancaster County PA.

 

 

Thank you in advance for your help on this important effort for our Society.
