  Study Unit Booth Volunteer - GASS 2024
  

  The Great American Stamp Show in Hartford, Connecticut will be here before you know it! The American Topical Association provides a booth for our study units at the show.

  Study units are invited and encouraged to take time working in the booth to meet people and recruit new members for your organizations. You may bring applications and materials to hand out as well.

  To make this possible, we must have the booth manned 80% of the show. Please sign up for shifts and encourage others in your groups to sign up as well (even if they are not ATA members).
