Back with the AGM

After too long a hiatus, we are beginning again our updating of this website. Obviously, events have in the meantime continued regularly ‐ reported mainly in the GPS Newsletter.

Besides the usual reports, the event included the distribution of certificates, medals and other prizes (with MaltaPost as main sponsor) to November 2017 GPS Exhibition participants.
The temporary exhibit in the GPS showcase on Level 1 at Il‐Hagar was changed to "Philatelic" Bands.
