The Thames Stamp Club serves collectors in Southeastern Connecticut and Southern Rhode Island. Meetings are held at the Clark Lane Jr. High School, Clark Lane, Waterford, Connecticut on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month from September to June. Everyone with an interest in any branch of Philatelic fellowship is welcome to visit or join.
Membership is five dollars per year.
Refreshments are served during a short recess followed by drawings for the evening's door prizes and the evenings scheduled events. Scheduled events include talks on various topics by club members or guests, club auctions and open trading sections. Circuit books are available and several area dealers usually have stock available. It is believed that the club has been active since at least World War II, and probably has been active since 1934 or earlier. First day covers bearing the clubs logo as a cachet are known dating back to at least 1936.
