Hey Scouts and Parents!
Are you interested in history, space exploration, wildlife, art, or pop culture? Did you know you can find all of these hobbies hidden inside the world of postage stamps?
Join Three Fires Council at CHICAGOPEX 2026 for a hands-on Stamp Collecting Merit Badge Workshop! Not only will you work toward earning your badge, but you’ll also get to explore a massive show floor of exhibits and dealers from across the country—and leave with your very own stamp collection!
• When: Saturday, November 21, 2026 | 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM
• Where: Westin Chicago Northwest (400 Park Blvd, Itasca, IL)
• Registration Deadline: November 19, 2026
Important Prerequisites & Details:
Complete Requirement 7a ahead of time (Design a stamp, cancellation, or cachet) and bring a paper copy of your design.
Bring a sack lunch, a signed blue card, and plenty of curiosity!
Parents are more than welcome to sit in, explore the show floor, and learn about the hobby, too.
• Spaces are limited, so don't wait until the deadline!
