  Washington 2006 is pleased to announce that Update 3 is now available for viewing on the exhibition's web site at http://www.washington-2006.org/

The once a decade U.S. international exhibition is scheduled for May 27- June 3, 2006.

The latest newsletter-style update contains four pages of information covering a variety of articles about the show.

As of mid-March, 242 collectors had joined Washington 2006 becoming "members" at various contributory levels.  Since then, a total of 330 individuals and societies have signed on, many of them at the recent NAPEX stamp show.  Contributions and pledges to date are just shy of $300,000.

Memberships start at $25 and come with an assortment of benefits.  The first in a series of souvenir cards has already been sent to individual members and is pictured in the update.  Just a handful remain for new members on a first-come basis.  Society memberships will be entitled to different premiums than those of individuals.

More than 120 firms from 11 countries are represented in the dealer's bourse. While some prime booths have already been reserved, many more are available in all price ranges.  Interested dealers are encouraged to contact bourse chairman Ken Martin by email at stampshow@stamps.org, day phone at 814-237-3803 ext. 218, or by mail to PO Box 8000, State College, PA 16803.

The brand new Washington, DC Convention Center, host facility for Washington 2006, has just opened to rave reviews.  GES Exposition Services of Washington, DC has been selected as the chief decorators for the show.

Other topics covered in Update 3 include planned youth area activities, the upcoming membership meeting scheduled during Stampshow in Columbus on August 9, a request to borrow exhibit frames from east coast stamp clubs, and an article on new Smithsonian Institution attractions which will be open by the time the show takes place.
